Description
"With the U.S. armed forces playing an ever increasing central role in American foreign policy, surprisingly little attention has been paid to the role of regional Commander-in-Chief (CinCs) in both implementing and shaping relations with various countries. Wielding tremendous power and substantial resources, both military and economic, these officers are also diplomats, advisors, and intermediaries between other countries and the Washington policy process." "America's Viceroys places the CinCs in historical context, examines the various policy roles CinCs play, and then explores the experience of CinCs in different regions. Particular attention is given to the crucial role, including in Kosovo, Colombia, and the Middle East. With the United States increasingly using the military to project power, this book provides insight into the officers who influence and implement American policies."--BOOK JACKET.
