520 1 $a"Jimmy Carter in 1977 stepped into a White House still struggling with the aftermath of the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal. As president, he had to administer his foreign policy and fight the Cold War within the limits imposed by both. His actions in Ethiopia and Somalia exemplified his redirection of American foreign policy to challenge the Soviet Union on a moral level, emphasizing regionalism and human rights." "This analysis demonstrates Carter's consistent approach to foreign affairs throughout his administration. It follows the president's designing of his overall policy and his attempt to regain for the presidency the trust and confidence of the American people. It discusses the ways in which this policy dealt with such issues as human rights abuses, a strong Communist bloc presence, and the violation of international law. Finally, the book examines the changes that occurred at the end of Carter's administration and the corresponding changes in policy - but not in motivation."--BOOK JACKET.
