US Foreign Policy in Context by Adam Quinn

This work blends strategic analysis of contemporary US foreign policy with long-term historical discussion, producing an important argument relevant to the debates surrounding both the merits of contemporary US foreign policy and the long-term trends at work in American political culture.

'By setting the intellectual stage for Wilson’s casting of America’s mission as the champion of liberal democracy around the globe, US foreign policy in context not only gives us a better understanding of that emblematic president but also frees us from understanding his successors through a simplistic Wilsonian reference point alone' -Nicolas Bouchet, International Affairs, Vol. 86, 4, 2010


"Quinn’s excellent and ambitious book... has significantly pushed our understandings of recent foreign policy by urging us to think more about the National Security Strategy of 2002 and Bush’s foreign policy as in keeping with the potent historical conceptions of internationalism that buttressed those policies. US Foreign Policy in Context should be applauded for crossing disciplinary boundaries and for analysing the crucial, complex, and (recently) understudied subject of national ideology. But most importantly, this book will be debated because it asks critical conceptual questions about the effects of long-term patterns of intellectual change on foreign policy and provides new analytical tools for discerning and locating the ideological and historical-intellectual forces that deeply informed the foreign policy of George W. Bush."- Christopher McKnight Nichols, University of Pennsylvania; Journal of Transatlantic Studies, 9:1
