About this title

Synopsis

This updated and expanded edition sets out a framework for examining the effects of what Alexander George has labelled "coercive diplomacy". The three original case studies of US efforts to employ coercive diplomacy - on Laos, the Cuban missile crises, and Vietnam - have been revised in the light of new findings, and four new studies - on Pearl Harbor, Nicaragua, Libya, and the Gulf crisis - have been added to provide breadth and weight to the analysis.
