An elusive consensus

by Janne E. Nolan

"Here Janne E. Nolan traces the effort to articulate a post-cold war nuclear doctrine through decisions made in the Bush and Clinton administrations, focusing on the leadership styles of presidents, bureaucratic politics, and broad foreign policy objectives."--BOOK JACKET. "Based on in-depth interviews with policy participants, this study illuminates in detail the dynamics by which the U.S. government has tried to reflect the dramatically altered international arena in its nuclear policies."--BOOK JACKET.
