Título: WAR IN A TIME OF PEACE: BUSH, CLINTON, AND THE GENERALS
Autor: HALBERSTAM, DAVID
Año: 2002
Género: POLÍTICA MUNDIAL
Formato: EPUB

Pulitzer Prize­ winning journalist David Halberstam chronicles Washington politics and foreign policy in post­ Cold War America.

Evoking the internal conflicts, unchecked egos, and power struggles within the White House, the State Department, and the military, Halberstam shows how the decisions of men who served in the Vietnam War –such as General Colin Powell and presidential advisers Richard Holbrooke and Anthony Lake– and those who did not, have shaped American politics and policy makers (perhaps most notably, President Clinton's placing, for the first time in fifty years, domestic issues over foreign policy).

He provides fascinating portraits of those in power –Clinton, Bush, Reagan, Kissinger, James Baker, Dick Cheney, Madeleine Albright, and others– to reveal a stunning view of modern political America.

More than twenty-five years ago Halberstam told the riveting story of the men who conceived and executed the Vietnam War. Today the author has written another chronicle of Washington politics, this time exploring the complex dynamics of foreign policy in post-Cold War America.
