Eagle Rules? Foreign Policy and American Primacy in the Twenty-First Century Summary

Eagle Rules? Foreign Policy and American Primacy in the Twenty-First Century by Robert J. Lieber

For courses in American Foreign Policy, International Relations, World Politics, and Introduction to Political Science.

This original volume assesses what we now know about world politics and American foreign policy after more than a decade of the post-Cold War era, and the wider implications of this experience both for the U.S. role in the 21st Century and for international relations more broadly. The chapter authors are leading authorities in their fields, and their contributions integrate both foreign and domestic setting for foreign policy.

Eagle Rules? Foreign Policy and American Primacy in the Twenty-First Century Reviews

"Once again, Lieber has been able to assemble an in-depth, timely, and provocative anthology on American foreign policy." - Lui Hebron, Florida International University

"Overall, this book fills an important gap in the offerings of existing texts on American foreign policy. Thematically, this volume is very timely in that it addresses U.S. foreign policy since the end of the Cold War. Not only are the chapters very current in their content, they anticipate the challenges that the United States will face in the twenty-first century. The contributors are all highly respected scholars and provide many valuable insights that will enlighten and interest students of foreign policy." - Shannon Lindsey Blanton, University of Memphis

"Lieber and Company have done it again! Eagle Rules?, the sixth volume in this popular edited collection on U.S. foreign policy, offers a sophisticated, well-informed, and timely assessment of the challenges to American primacy more than a decade after the end of the Cold War. This book is required reading for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars alike." - Linda P Brady, Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, Georgia Institute of Technology
