About this product

Product Information

Ambiguous Commitments and Uncertain Policies offers a reassessment of the Truman Doctrine. In this insightful, thorough, and carefully documented study, Judith Jeffery tests the truth of the claim that America's peacetime intervention in Greece was a model on which to base other such ventures. In March 1947, President Truman launched a program of U.S. aid to Greece. Truman saw in Greece, which had been shattered by World War II, not only a dire situation needing humanitarian aid, but also an opportunity to assert American authority in this early period of the Cold War: civil war waged by the Communist-backed guerrilla movement against the government was threatening to further destroy the country. The president and his administration thus dispatched American troops with the directive to destroy the Communist forces. The defeat of the Communists in 1949 was hailed as a great U.S. military achievement. Did this achievement come at the expense of the Truman Doctrine--which made explicit that the first priority of President Truman and his administration in defeating communism was to improve the standard of living in Greece? How do claims about the success of the aid program measure up against the original intentions of the Administration in mid-1947 and against the program's real outcome at the beginning of the 1950s? What was the real story behind the Greek Communist defeat? Jeffery's cogent analysis of events from 1947 to 1952 provides fodder for today's heavily contested debates about U.S. foreign policy and intervention.

    Excellent book. Wonderful tips for your adults to :"make it" on their own.

    I bought this for the son of my best friend who recently passed at the age of 53. Her 20 year old son was left on his own & needs to manage on his own. He told me the book has been a life changer!

  • It should have a sub title: a book for every day living

    This is a great book for graduates or any young (or older) person on their own. It has tips on everything...it is not just a cook book it is a life book....I am 57 years old and when I started buying this book for all of the children of my friends over 10 years ago; I found it useful for me also...there are tips in there that were new to me...the binder lets you add pages with your favorite or family recipes and tips that you have learned over the years also...almost everyone I have given it to keeps it in a handy spot; so it will be there when they need it. I wish I had had something like this when I started out....I had to do a lot of my learning by trial and error.....Everyone should have this book to fall back on.

  • Where's Mom Now That I Need Her

    I had received this as a wedding shower gift in 1988, and now as my daughter has moved out on her own I thought this was a must have gift...This cookbook features amazingly delicious yet oh so easy recipes that use simple everyday items that you have on hand...it also features great budgeting, laundry, and cleaning tips...(it even has recipes on how to make your own cleaning products to save money)...I have had my book for 20 yrs and still use it to this day...it is a fantastic book and I would recommend it to anyone.
