Book Description
This book discusses and assesses the War Powers Resolution and its application since enactment in 1973, providing detailed background on various cases in which it was used, as well as cases in which issues of its applicability were raised. In the post-Cold War world, Presidents have continued to involve U.S. Armed Forces into potential hostilities, sometimes without a specific authorisation from Congress. Thus, the War Power Resolution and its purposes continue to be a potential subject of controversy.
