Summary:
"Some of Bill Clinton's most basic foreign policy elements -
democratic peace, the post-Cold War peace dividend, geopolitics and
state-society relations are epitomized in the U.S.-Russian Highly
Enriched Uranium (HEU) Purchase Agreement. It was one of the most
remarkable initiatives of Clinton's presidency, but oddly one of the
most obscure that still continues under President George W. Bush.
This agreement illustrates how successfully the U.S. and Russia could
work together to reduce global nuclear fears but also how a series of
decisions pitted global designs over American domestic interests."
"The story behind this decision has repercussions for our
understanding of arms control, foreign policy decision making and
U.S.-Russian relations. This is a book about the intersection of
levels of analysis, international security concerns and domestic
political economy. Ideal as a supplementary text for advanced courses
in security and foreign policy."--BOOK JACKET.
