Synopsis
This timely collection of original perspectives evaluates George W. Bush's presidency and administration at midterm. In short, it's a how-they're-doing-so-far report from the top experts in the field, including Joel Aberbach, Charles Jones, George Edwards III, and Barbara Sinclair. Bush's presidency is intriguing for a number of reasons. The unusual circumstances of Bush's ascent to the presidency, the political success of his campaign to cut taxes, the horrific events of 9/11, the waning of the economic boom, corporate corruption, and the rise of a unilateral and muscular approach to U.S. foreign policy -- are just some of the distinguishing factors discussed in a balanced and fair-minded approach. Each contributor focuses on one aspect of the Bush administration ranging from leadership style, interest groups, public opinion, to foreign policy and the courts. The book provides an early assessment of Bush's accomplishments, failures and frustrations at a particularly stressful time in American history.
