The Two Faces of National Interest

Political Traditions in Foreign Policy Series

by W. David Clinton

Clinton presents a clarification of the different senses in which the term national interest is used by analysts and officials; develops and justifies his own definition; and uses this definition to consider four departures in American foreign policy since the preparation of the Marshall Plan, the decision to enter the Korean War, the Nixon Doctrine, and the Carter policy on human rights.
