A New Deal for the world Book

Attempts to document ways in which policy makers have used their limited pop historical understandings to legitimize their actions. All this is based on the limited available public documents of the early 1970s, which require revision in light of the more information available today of course. The idea "serious" historians advising decision makers will result in better decisions is questionable but I can get behind the value of historical political lexicology. Some rather unimaginative predictions for what the future had in store.
