0030638194. 172 pages, cloth, dj, very good. From the publisher: For more than 35 years, George F. Kennan has been an eloquent and influential voice in American foreign policy. He has been prominent in debates ranging from 'containment' and the Marshall Plan to the control of nuclear arms. But his larger philosophy of foreign affairs-scattered through numerous books, letters, lectures, and essays-has remained elusive. In Contending with Kennan, Barton Gellman arranges the strands of Kennan's thought into a systematic view of America's place in the world. Through a careful critique of Kennan's published and unpublished writings-on strategy, the national interest, military force, morality, and the role of democracy in world politics-Gellman probes the uses and limits of American power.
