Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: With the war on terrorism the Bush administration has laid the foundation for a distinct foreign policy that is defined by the use of preemptive force in order to avert harm before it can materialize. While the consequences of the Bush Doctrine are still unfolding, one might ask why the administration decided on the strategy of preemptive use of force and whether the courses of action following from it are indeed effective in accomplishing victory in the war on terrorism. In this paper, we will explore the major themes that have informed the Bush administration's foreign policy since 9/11. These include: (1) the exercise of unilateral power that may alienate foreign countries, undermine America's reputation abroad, and damage its efforts in the war on terrorism; (2) the export of American values and influence to shape political outcome in America's image; (3) the firm belief in its virtual monopoly on truth and its unwavering determination to achieve its moral calling; and (4) the unprecedented overextension of both American financial power and its military at the expense of homeland protection and funding for important domestic policies. Although other observers of contemporary American foreign policy have pointed to these themes, we examine systematically how the President's strong religious beliefs have shaped each theme and show that the administration's level of religiousness has led to a revival of the American idea of a Manifest Destiny in American foreign policy.
