Tim Aistrope

Conspiracy theory and American foreign policy

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This study examines the relationship between secrecy, power and interpretation around international political controversy, where foreign policy orthodoxy comes up hard against alternative interpretations. It does so in the context of American foreign policy during the War on Terror, a conflict that was quintessentially covert and conspiratorial.
