American Foreign Policy In Greece 1944 49

A case study of Greek-American relations between 1944 and 1949 which tests economic explanations of American foreign relations after World War II. Greece is seen as the trial period for American military activities abroad after 1945, resulting in the Truman Administration's rejection of Wilson's liberal-capitalist internationalism in favor of a permanent military input into policy making.

Forfatteren analyserer den amerikanske intervention i Grækenland 1943-49 - politisk, militært, økonomisk og handelsmæssigt - og påpeger mange alvorlige fejltagelser, som gjorde amerikanerne meget upopulære i Grækenland.

This volume is designed to illuminate Greece'ss efforts in World War II and to set forth the reasons for Greece's importance to the U.S. today. It is my hope that this volume will stimulate much additional scholarship on Greece'ss historic role in World War II and in the 20th Century as well as Greece'ss importance to the U.S. in the new millennium.
