Explaining Foreign Policy: U.S. Decision-Making in the Gulf Wars

This comprehensive analysis examines the decision-making processes behind two major conflicts in the Persian Gulf, shedding light on the complexities of foreign policy and the role of various factors in shaping U.S. actions.

By integrating multiple theoretical models, including rational actor, cognitive, domestic politics, groupthink, and bureaucratic politics, Steve A. Yetiv offers a nuanced understanding of the foreign policy behavior of governments, drawing on primary sources and interviews with key actors to illuminate the decision-making process.
