Summary A clearly articulated, well-defined, and relatively stable grand strategy is supposed to allow the ship of state to steer a steady course through the roiling seas of global politics. However, the obstacles to formulating and implementing grand strategy are, by all accounts, imposing. This handbook addresses the conceptual and historical foundations, production, evolution, and future of grand strategy from a wide range of standpoints
