Congress and the Cold War
The first historical interpretation of the congressional response to the entire Cold War, using a wide variety of sources, including several manuscript collections opened specifically for this study. The manuscript places the congressional revolt against U.S. foreign policy during the Vietnam War in historical perspective, arguing that ideologically and tactically, congressional critics of the war built off earlier precedents. Additionally, the book offers guidance for understanding the relatively weak congressional role in contemporary foreign policy, a product of institutional, ideological, and political changes at the end of the Cold War.
