Book Information

A detailed case study of the government policymaking process, this volume takes one key issue--the strategic minerals problem--and examines each stage of decision-making from the acquisition of raw data through the promulgation of foreign policy. By focusing on a single issue, the author is able to provide a unique window into the activities, structure, and dynamics of key U.S. government policymaking bodies--and a more accurate account of the policymaking process than has heretofore been available in print. Students of government, military strategies, and policymaking will find Anderson's work enlightening reading.
