DARYAEE MOTLAGH, Ebrahim. Foreign Policy Marathon: The Emergent Role of Foreign Policy in the Political Career of George H. W. Bush (1971-1989). CONfines relacion. internaci. ciencia política [online]. 2023, vol.19, n.36, pp.72-92. Epub 03-Mayo-2024. ISSN 1870-3569. https://doi.org/10.46530/cf.vi36/cnfns.n36.p72-92.
The present article reviews the emergent role of foreign policy in the political career of George H. W. Bush, one of the most influential political figures in the second half of the 20th century. More specifically, the focus of this review is Bush’s steady presence in government service and his unique perspective on foreign policy. Since an attempt of this kind has been the goal of previous research, the present article builds on the existing literature with an emphasis on the role of foreign policy in a political trajectory which later came to the fore during his presidency. This review focuses on four administrations and the areas of global change from the time of Bush’s entry into world politics up to his successful presidential campaign. In doing so, the study pursues the emergent role of foreign policy within Bush’s lifelong pursuit with references to Cold War foreign policy examples. The article demonstrates how this role was subject to individual circumstances, global imperatives and each administration’s unique approach to world affairs.
