Theologians of Empire
The Masterminds of America’s Foreign Policy
12/01/2004
When
the current Bush administration took office in 2001, little was made
of the names that constituted Bush’s inner circle of policy
advisors, or of his appointees. But the aftermath of the September
11 attacks on the US ushered in a new era for American foreign
policy, marked by an unprecedented belligerence and contempt for the
norms of international law. This rabidly unilateralist stance on the
part of the US raised many questions about the administration’s
hawks and the “neoconservative” political philosophy they
subscribe to.

discourse, their philosophical roots, and their seemingly
paradoxical alliance with the Christian fundamentalist right:
