The Domestic Bases of Grand Strategy / / ed. by Arthur A. Stein, Richard Rosecrance.

This book explores the idea of grand strategy and offers a full-blown critique—both theoretical and empirical—of the gaps and inconsistencies that weaken modern realist theory. Grand strategy, the authors maintain, is determined as much by domestic politics as by international pressures.
