They eschew prescription of any one specific approach, chosen from a spectrum that stretches from global primacy to restraint and isolationism, in favor of describing what America's military actually does, day to day. They argue that a series of fundamental recent changes in the global system, the inevitable jostling of bureaucratic politics, and the practical limitations of field operations combine to ensure that each presidential administration inevitably resorts to a variety of strategies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProponents of different American grand strategies have historically focused on the pivotal role of the Navy. In response, Reich and Dombrowski examine six major maritime operations, each of which reflects one major strategy. One size does not fit all, say the authors--the attempt to impose a single overarching blueprint is no longer feasible. Reich and Dombrowski declare that grand strategy, as we know it, is dead. \u003ci\u003eThe End of Grand Strategy\u003c\/i\u003e is essential reading for policymakers, military strategists, and analysts and critics at advocacy groups and think tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Simon Reich, Peter Dombrowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501714627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501714627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cornell University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.69d","brand":"Simon Reich","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44043347951871,"sku":"9781501714627","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dd4eed53-fba7-49aa-9ded-53a33dd290c8.jpg?v=1684966634","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-end-of-grand-strategy-simon-reich-9781501714627","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
