* Post-Cold War Foreign Policy Coverage: The entire second half of American Foreign Policy: The Dynamics of Choice in the 21st Century addresses the foreign policy choices facing the United States as it enters the next century. * An Emphasis on Theoretical and Historical Context: American Foreign Policy provides students with a valuable analytic framework in international relations theory and U.S. diplomatic history in which to understand policy decisions. * Core Questions: Professor Jentleson arms students with concrete questions, enabling focused and critical reading. He identifies the fundamental questions informing foreign policy debates: what is the national interest, what foreign policy strategies will help to achieve it, and which institutions and actors within the American political system play an influential role in foreign policy politics?* Distinctive Pedagogy: As an award-winning teacher, Professor Jentleson understands the need for pedagogy that is instructive without being intrusive. Tables, figures, and maps are well integrated into the book's design and are central to the discussion. Three boxed elements-"At the Source," "Perspectives," and "Dynamics of Choice"-allow the author to present primary and secondary material without interrupting the flow of the text.
