What is grand strategy ? What does it aim to achieve? And what differentiates it from
normal strategic thought--what, in other words, makes it "grand"? In answering these
questions, most scholars have focused on diplomacy and warfare, so much so that "grand"?
In answering these questions, most scholars have focused on diplomacy and warfare,
so much so that "grand strategy" has become almost an equivalent of "military history."
The traditional attention paid to military affairs is understandable, but in today's
world it leaves out much else that could be considered political, and therefore strategic.
Just as contemporary world politics is driven by a wide range of non-military issues,
the most thorough considerations of grand strategy must consider the bases of peace
and security--including gender, race, the environment, and a wide range of cultural,
social, political, and economic issues. Rethinking American Grand Strategy assembles
a roster of leading historians to examine America's place in the world. Its innovative
chapters re-examine familiar figures, such as John Quincy Adams, George Kennan, and
Henry Kissinger, while also revealing the forgotten episodes and hidden voices of
American grand strategy. They expand the scope of diplomatic and military history
by placing the grand strategies of public health, race, gender, humanitarianism, and
the law alongside military and diplomatic affairs to reveal hidden strategists as
well as strategies.
