Local Interests and American Foreign Policy

More about the book

Focusing on the formation and interaction of social interest groups, this book offers a multifaceted framework that incorporates historical, sociological, and international relations perspectives to analyze socio-political dynamics in target societies. It critiques the prevailing monolithic ideological assumptions in American foreign policy, arguing that reliance on state interventions as a solution leads to the repetition of past errors. This exploration is particularly relevant as the U.S. seeks to redefine its objectives and methods in foreign interventions.
