A Preliminary Study On The Bush Doctrine

The Bush doctrine is the national security strategy of the first George.W.Bush Administration,which is the outcome of the modern imperial America.This essay is to make a preliminary study of the Bush Doctrine—its material and spiritual conditions,George W.Bush's ideas and policies,the President's hawkish team,the interaction of the President,the hawkish team and the neo-conservative,and the Bush doctrine's two strategic aims of anti-terrorism and hegemony,three tactics of preemptive strike,front containment and regime change,three characteristics of unilateralism,militarism and asianism,four aftermaths,four contradictions and it's military imperial essence.The main thought of the Bush doctrine is:in the chaotic and dangerous world after "9.11" attack,American enemy No.1 is the international terrorists,and other powers are also the potential rivalries of the USA;the USA should take advantage of the opportunity of "9.11",use the strong power of the USA,especially the military power unhesitatingly—only this can protect the national security and interests of the USA, and keep the sole position of the superpower.The national security,interests and position of the USA are beyond challenge,countries all over the world should keep clear mind of this and stop to think to content with the USA in military area automatically right now.If needed,the USA will make a preemptive strike to it's enemy,implement front containment and make a regime change to a sovereign state, without the permission of the UN and the reason of international laws.Only on this can the new world order of the Pan-Americana be built forever.The Bush doctrine affects the current world greatly with its military imperial strategy. Not only it violate the international laws and the UN Charters,but also damage the international cause of anti-terrorism,the Atlantic alliance and the soft power of the USA itself,it also accelerates the multi-polarization of the international politics.The Bush doctrine is being its difficult time and hard to continue.
