foreign policy |
Also found in: Wikipedia | 0.04 sec. |
foreign policyGeneral objectives that guide the activities and relationships of one state in its interactions with other states. The development of foreign policy is influenced by domestic considerations, the policies or behaviour of other states, or plans to advance specific geopolitical designs. Leopold von Ranke emphasized the primacy of geography and external threats in shaping foreign policy, but later writers emphasized domestic factors. Diplomacy is the tool of foreign policy, and war, alliances, and international trade may all be manifestations of it. |

Moises Naim, editor and publisher of Foreign Policy magazine, says such press censorship has evolved from a "heavy hand of the state that directly takes over operations" to a more indirect form, which often takes the shape of scrutiny by tax authorities or by economic boycotts. Peter Zimmerman and Jeffrey Lewis raised eyebrows in November when they published an article in Foreign Policy Magazine that described how such an operation would take place. Take, for example, the list of countries identified as failed or failing by Foreign Policy magazine and the Fund for Peace in 2005. |
