Constructive Engagement?

Angebote / Angebote:

The notion of engagement represtents an indispensible tool in a foreign policy practitioner's armory. The idea of constructive engagement is forwarded by governments as a method whereby pressure can be brought to bear on countries to improve their record on human rights, while diplomatic and economic contracts can be maintained. But does this approach succeed? To answer this question this book offers a critical evaluation of one of the best-known examples of constructive engagement-the Reagan administration's policy toward South Africa. Chester Crocker was appointed as Reagan's assistant secretary of state for African affairs in 1981. This book aims to determine how successful Crocker's constructive engagement policy was in South Africa and the neighboring states of Namibia and Angola. In this timely and brilliant study, Davies examines the implications for current applications of constructive engagement as a tool of foreign policy.
