Military Components of American Foreign Policy

Lidija Kos-Stanišić

Sažetak

The central concept of American international political analysis is political power i.e. it`s capability of accomplishing aims, which are, however, specified on the basis of US national interest. The author analyses the use of military means - the main instrument of American global influence and interventionism; determinants which influence the creation of American foreign policy and the use of military force and finds periods in history of the United States of America when military force had been used, more or less, as the instrument of American foreign policy. The USA tends to take their own interests for the interests of the global community and, as the author concludes, the USA will continue to use even in the 21st century threats and force of arms as means of accomplishing their international political aims.
