In this new edition of a groundbreaking work-one of the first to bring critical theory into dialogue with more traditional approaches to international relations-David Campbell provides a fundamental reappraisal of American foreign policy, with a new epilogue to address current world affairs and the burgeoning focus on culture and identity in the study of international relations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eExtending recent debates in international relations, Campbell shows how perceptions of danger and difference work to establish the identity of the United States. He demonstrates how foreign policy, far from being an expression of a given society, constitutes state identity through the interpretation of danger posed by others.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"This is an intriguing book. . . . It not only goes behind foreign policy as such, to look at its domestic roots, but also digs deeply into the very nature of those roots themselves. . . . By moving us beyond, or behind, the usual starting point of foreign policy, this study performs the signal service of inviting us to reflect more deeply on how what we think we are affects how we act in the world.\" International Journal\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eISBN 0-8166-3144-1 Paper $19.95x COBE\/EU\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e312 pages 5 7\/8 x 9 September\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTranslation inquiries: University of Minnesota Press\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Campbell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0816631441\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780816631445\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Minnesota Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.11h x 5.95w x 0.64d","brand":"David Campbell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072817524991,"sku":"9780816631445","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bbf5012e-7c03-4b4e-a3d9-e0edcebfb54f.jpg?v=1685444103","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/writing-security-david-campbell-9780816631445","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
