Strategic Leadership and Policy Formulation in the Global War on Terrorism: Does the United States Have a Grand Strategy.

摘要

The National Security Strategy of the United States of America clearly states that the United States welcomes our responsibility to lead the world in a great mission of freedom and human dignity. With President Bush's approval rating at an all-time low in numerous polls as a result of the war in Iraq American citizens and Congressional leaders are asking what is our policy in Iraq as well as our way ahead in this global war on terrorism. This project will analyze the strategic leadership of the administration and how that leadership has been applied to the global war on terrorism through its current policies and strategy formulation and implementation. The analysis will then assess whether our current strategy is working and whether a change in policy and/or strategy is recommended in order to succeed in the global war on terrorism.
