Contemporary international society has been described as an interdependent world. The most urgent problems confronting the world can no longer be solved within national boundaries, making the nation state obsolete. Eastby has contributed an important analytical study of functionalism and interdependence by tracing the core ideas of functionalism as enunciated by David Mitrany and interpretations by thinkers such as Hans Morgenthau and I.L. Claude.

This is the first major original study of pragmatism as it relates to foreign policy. The credibility of philosophies of politics and foreign policies rests on the soundness of its intellectual foundations. The public's acceptance of a philosophy depends also on the ability to comprehend its assumptions and tenets. The question raised in this study is whether the public senses instinctively some of the major tenets of pragmatism without grasping the underlying principles on which it rests. If so, how crucial is this weakness in determining the viability of pragmatism as a philosophy on foreign policy?

Tillfälligt slut
Henry Kissinger serves as a powerful example of one who managed to dominate the foreign policy bureaucracies in the Nixon and Ford Administrations. The author asserts that the former Secretary of State has redirected our thinking about these problems of foreign policy, particularly because Kissinger argued that lack of statesmanship is actually at the heart of the matter.
