Meer over het boek

Focusing on the congressional response to the Cold War, this historical interpretation examines the revolt against U.S. foreign policy during the Vietnam War, highlighting how critics drew from earlier precedents. It utilizes a diverse array of sources, including newly accessible manuscript collections. The study also explores the diminished role of Congress in contemporary foreign policy, attributing this to institutional, ideological, and political shifts that occurred after the Cold War.
