Barack Obama’s Foreign Policy during His First Term. Continuation or Change?

• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

EN

The paper aims at assessing United States foreign policy during Barack Obama’s first term in office. While acknowledging many possible conceptual frameworks, the author uses continuity and change approach. Thus, the following areas are covered: implementation of selected foreign policy decisions, personal dimension, relations with Congress and some projection for future development. Surprisingly, notwithstanding rhetoric of change, it seems to be evident that the United States foreign policy between 2009 and 2012 may be described with considerable amount of continuity.
