Product Review

Originally published by Cambridge in 1991, this text has become an indispensable volume not only for teachers and students of international history and political science, but also general readers seeking an introduction to American diplomatic history. Along with substantially revised essays from the first edition, it presents entirely new material on postcolonial theory, borderlands history, modernization theory, gender, race, memory, cultural transfer, and critical theory. The book defines the study of American international history by stimulating research in new directions, and encouraging interdisciplinary thinking, especially between diplomatic history and other fields of American history in an increasingly globalized world.
