Anotácia knihy

This pioneering book provides a new interpretation §of the Anglo-American special relationship s §fundamental nature, its strengths and weaknesses, §and the heart of its operational dynamic. Revealing §the powerful influence of cultural affinity, §Hendershot explains why no disagreement, however §large, has been able to divide the American and §British partnership entirely an explanation rooted §in the history of Anglo-American crises, myths and §perceptions of fraternity. Focusing on the 1956 §Suez crisis and the American war in Vietnam, the §author draws upon vast archival records and public §opinion survey data to demonstrate how cultural §affinity has stabilized and sustained the alliance §even in the face of bitter disagreements. As the §sinew of this unique bilateral partnership, cultural §affinity has allowed the special relationship, §though altered and unequal, to survive into the 21st §century. This book is addressed to readers §interested in the special relationship, the Suez §crisis, the Vietnam War, Cold War alliances, and the §influence of culture upon diplomacy.
