| Abstract | "Great Power, Great Responsibility: How the Liberal International Order Shapes U.S. Foreign Policy explores how the liberal international order (LIO) has influenced U.S. foreign policy from its founding to the present. Proponents of the LIO argue that its impact has been profound. Critics charge that it has failed to prevent the U.S. from violating rules and norms. The answer lies in between. While rule breaking has been a constant feature of the postwar order, the nature of violations varies in surprising and poorly understood ways. America's approach to compliance with the liberal order, including whether leaders feel the need to conceal rule violations at all, is a function of two primary factors: the intensity of competition over international order and the burden of complying with the liberal order's core tenets in a given case. Together, these factors help explain whether policymakers abide by the LIO or violate it in secret or out in the open. This argument is evaluated in nine cases spanning from the Korean War to the Iraq War. Great Power, Great Responsibility has significant implications for the future of the rules-based international order, grand strategy, and strategic competition with China and Russia"-- Provided by publisher. |
