Full Description
In this timely book, Alex Callinicos explores the real meaning of the Bush Doctrine. He deconstructs the rhetorical justifications of the 'war on terrorism' and analyses the strategy of the Republican neoconservatives who now dominate American foreign policy.
A controversial and provocative view on an extremely timely and important topic.
Examines the neo-conservative foreign policies of the Bush administration and the "Project for the New American Century".
Highly topical
Builds on the success of Callinicos' previous book with us - An Anti-Capitalist Manifesto.
