About This Item
(Subject: Political & Biographies - General) the author explores the changes in the historical role of the president since 1945. He argues that after 1945, the outbreak of the Cold War and setting up the CIA gave the president power in the name of, but not always with the consent of, the people. Paranoia is another theme. From Truman's and Kennedy's fear of Communism, through to Johnson's and Nixon's fears of political rivals. The impact of Watergate through Ford and Carter is examined, as is the reassertion of strong presidential leadership under Reagan and Bush (Published: 2000) (Publisher: Sutton Publishing) (ISBN: 9780750922777) (Pagination: 288pp) (Condition: New in d/w) UL-XXXXXX
