Over the past twenty years, controversy has raged over the greatly expanded role of Congress in the formulation of US national defence policy. Barry Blechman, who served as Assistant Director to the US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency and as a consultant to the Pentagon and numerous congressional committees, here analyses this fundamental shift in US policy-making. Based in part on interviews with Congress members and their staff, the book explains how and why these changes came about and what their consequences have been for the defence of American interests.

Barrys book offers a wide-ranging argument for a politics of engagement and resilience with each other, and with the environment that sustains us, in climate-changed society. It represents the best of critical and applied political theory, incorporating a range of ideas and practices of the academy and civil society into a broad call for a move beyond our unsustainable ways. We may be the people we have been waiting for, as Barry argues, but this is definitely the book weve been waiting for. (Prof. David Schlosberg, Professor of Environmental Politics, University of Sydney)
