In the 1970s the United States faced challenges on a number of fronts. By nearly every measure American power was no longer unrivalled. The task of managing America's relative decline fell to President Richard Nixon Henry Kissinger and Gerald Ford. From 1969 to 1977 Nixon Kissinger and Ford reoriented U.S. foreign policy from its traditional poles of liberal interventionism and conservative isolationism into a policy of active but conservative engagement. In Nixon in the World seventeen leading historians of the Cold War and U.S. foreign policy show how they did it where they succeeded and where they took their new strategy too far. Drawing on newly declassified materials they provide authoritative and compelling analyses of issues such as Vietnam detente arms control and the U.S.-China rapprochement creating the first comprehensive volume on American foreign policy in this pivotal era.
