Women and American Foreign Policy - Lobbyists, Critics, and Insiders (America in the Modern World)

Dr. Crapol initially postulated that women have played only a minor role in American foreign policy. His ensuing research convinced him that they have been able to make significant contributions, even while remaining secondary players in a primarily male-dominated arena. This collection of essays--by eight leading scholars in political science and women's studies--spans more than one hundred fifty years of American history and highlights the efforts of women.

Summary

What role have women played in forming American foreign policy? In addressing that question, Professor Crapol found that, whereas women might have been viewed as having played a relatively minor role, they had, in fact, made significant contributions, despite being "secondary players".
