Ronald Reagan and the politics of freedom2001

In this book Andrew E. Busch goes beyond economic and foreign policies to examine Reagan's understanding of statesmanship. Busch analyzes Reagan's conscious attempt to strengthen the separation of powers, federalism, and traditional rhetoric, and his efforts to revive the notion of limited government in a Constitutional Republic. In this new study, Busch concludes that Ronald Reagan's politics of freedom found in his discourse, policy, and coalition-building achieved significant successes in the 1980s and beyond.
