Alone in Power: The Presidency and Decision-Making of President Richard M. Nixon. - Ann Arbor : ProQuest Dissertations & Theses, 2015 - 149 p.

Thesis (M.A.)--Trent University (Canada), 2015.

This item is not available from ProQuest Dissertations & Theses.

The thesis uses three case studies of President Nixon's foreign policy in South-east Asia to analyze presidential domestic-making. The theoretical concept of personality politics is used to analyze the Nixon administration and foreign policy. Nixon's secretive nature combined with his mistrust of the press and bureaucracy to create an office structure that restricted the involvement and notification of others of his foreign policy. This thesis also takes into account the domestic climate that Nixon was operating within, including significant antiwar opposition, an adversarial media, and an ideologically opposed bureaucracy. Nixon's foreign policy was ultimately the result of a perfect storm of factors. The president's natural penchant for secrecy, along with his mistrust of the press and bureaucracy, combined with the American political environment that was in many instances ideologically set against him, also helped shape his foreign policy.
