Reviews
"...a welcome addition to the literature....the book is based on solid research (including almost 100 interviews), and the case studies are well written and informative. After reading this book, one is left with an understanding of how negatively the Cold War affected Africa, and how the superpowers used Africa as an arena for settling global conflicts....Schraeder makes an important contribution by integrating the analysis of African international relations into a broader social scientific framework....The book is also a good place to start for readers who seek an overview of U.S. relations with Africa. Both specialists and generalists will find this a useful study."David N. Gibbs, Journal of Politics, "The detail of the case studies provides a fascinating glimpse into American foreign policy toward Africa since World War II, and the theoretical argument makes a contribution to explaining when the president matters, when bureaucrats matter, and when Congress matters. The overall approach of the book is highly readable and engaging and its historical and conceptual content make it well-suited for upper-divisional undergraduates and graduate seminars."Presidential Studies Quarterly, "This first-rate book is aimed at both an academic audience and African readers trying to make sense of American diplomacy....the accounts are well presented and effectively illustrate the patterns and processes at the core of the analysis....An excellent text for college courses." Gail Gerhart, Foreign Affairs, "The audience for whom the book was written...should find the volume generally useful. Each group will find its extensive sources very helpful...and practitioners in the foreign policy field should find important clarifications and insights from the described role of the national bureaucracies. ... The book is well written and is accessible to bright undergraduate students." Winston E.

Synopsis
In this book Peter Schraeder offers the first comprehensive theoretical analysis of US foreign policy toward Africa in the postwar era. He argues that though we often assume that US policymakers 'speak with one voice', Washington's foreign policy is, however, derived from numerous centres of power which each have the ability to pull policy in different directions. The book describes the evolution of policy at three levels: Presidents and their close advisors; the bureaucracies of the executive branch; and Congress and African affairs interest groups. Most importantly, the evidence presented demonstrates that the nature of events in Africa has itself affected the operation of the US policymaking process, and the substance of US policy. Drawing on over 100 interviews, and detailed case studies in Zaire, Ethiopia-Somalia and South Africa, this book provides a unique analysis of the historical evolution of US foreign policy towards Africa from the 1940s to the 1990s., This book offers the first comprehensive theoretical analysis of US foreign policy toward Africa in the postwar era.

Item shipped in a box, great!, however, the box was much bigger than the book with nothing to hold the book inside so it got banged around inside the box during shipping. Used boxes that fit better or packaging material.

The cover and back cover are pretty beat up, but the inside is undamaged. Description was not totally accurate (for example, the page count was different--but it doesn't appear that any pages are missing), but for the price point, it can't be beat. I would definitely buy from this seller again.The Paralegal Professional (4th Edition) by Goldman, Thomas F. (#196447639550)
