Public Choice Theory and the Illusion of Grand Strategy
How Generals, Weapons Manufacturers, and Foreign Governments Shape American Foreign Policy (Routledge Studies in US Foreign Policy)
Richard Hanania
An insightful exploration of the forces that shape American foreign policy decisions. The author contends that concentrated interests, such as government contractors, the national security bureaucracy, and foreign governments, exert a greater influence on decision-making than traditional notions of grand strategy. This perspective offers unique insights into American foreign policy decisions regarding China, the war on terror, and the distribution of US forces abroad. The book will be of interest to scholars in American Studies, Foreign Policy Analysis, and Global Governance.

Interesting books on culture and society I've read recently. I don't necessarily agree with any of them, but they're all useful and informative. --> – source
