Frakes reveals the connection between US national security strategy at the end of the Cold War and the beginning of the War on Terror. \u003c\/b\u003eThroughout a series of crises from 1981 to 1991, the administrations of Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush recognized that emerging threats to global security--terrorism, regional aggression, weapons of mass destruction, and narcotics trafficking--converged into a single growing phenomenon that they eventually called \"rogue states.\" In confronting Libya, Panama, and Iraq, Reagan and Bush created the strategies that drove US national security after 9\/11. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrakes argues that Reagan and Bush's improvised responses to crises of terrorism, aggression, and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction--culminating in the Gulf War of 1991--established a lasting enforcement role for the United States against rogue states in the post-Cold War world. The effort to redefine US national security around this threat created a new framework to guide the country's approach to global security after the Cold War--one that ensured after 9\/11 that the War on Terror became a war on rogue states.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatthew A.
