Deux moments forts ont traversé les Etats-Unis durant le XXe siècle : les périodes s’étendant de 1933 à 1952 et de 1961 à 1968.

Based on a wide array of recently declassified government documents, this study challenges the popular view that Johnson's approach to China was marked by stagnation and sterility, exploring the administration's relationship to both the Vietnam War and the Cultural Revolution. By documenting Johnson's contributions to the decision-making process Lumbers offers a new perspective...
