This book provides an assessment of Thatcher's foreign policy throughout her years in office, 1979-90. Successive chapters cover her partnership with Carrington, the Falklands War, Thatcher's American policy, her fights with the EC over money and institutional development, her relationship with Gorbachev, and the failure of her German policy. The main argument is that Thatcher's attempt to reconcile economic liberalism with political nationalism in a more assertive foreign policy prefigured the emerging statecraft of post-Cold War great power politics.
