The rise of democracy promotion originated in a long historical tradition that saw exporting American political values as instrumental in securing US security and economic interests, an idea which was expressed freely once Cold War strategic constraints disappeared. Under Bill Clinton, there was an explicit attempt to do so by reframing American strategy in terms of 'democratic enlargement' and this book assesses the strategic use of democracy promotion in US foreign policy and its different outcomes during his presidency. Offering a comprehensive, global review of American democracy engagement with different regions of the world and key countries during a whole presidency, this book assesses how far the US has benefited from democracy promotion. It evaluates the instrumental value of democracy promotion for America by seeing whether the Clinton administration's efforts in this field, and their varying impacts to democratization abroad, were matched by progress in securing US strategic goals defined under enlargement, in particular reducing international conflicts and spreading economic liberalization around the world. The book explores how democracy became central to US post-Cold War strategy, how the Clinton administration developed the concept of democratic enlargement and tried to implement it, and why it remained influential on foreign policy throughout Clinton's presidency"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a The roots and influence of democratic enlargement -- Institutionalizing democracy promotion -- Operationalizing democracy promotion -- Democratic enlargement in Eurasia and Eastern Europe -- Democratic enlargement in the rest of the world -- The rewards of democratic enlargement. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 651 0 $a United States $x Foreign relations $y 1993-2001. 650 0 $a Democratization $x Government policy $z United States. 600 10 $a Clinton, Bill, $d 1946- 648 7 $a 1993-2001 $2 fast 830 0 $a Routledge studies in US foreign policy. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826050931.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1DB148966B5411E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
