From the vantage point of the 2016 presidential election and the
deepening polarization of American politics in recent decades, it is
striking how much more distant the Reagan-Bush era of the 1980s and
early 1990s seems compared to the years that have actually passed.
Whither the Republican Party of yesteryear? Like reincarnated
characters from Samuel Beckett’s classic play Waiting for Godot,
many disillusioned conservatives in the new millennium continue to
search obdurately and in vain for a leader who embodies the acclaimed
leadership traits of Ronald Reagan. This second edition of Historical
Dictionary of the Reagan-Bush Era contains a chronology, an
introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The
dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on important
personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, events,
institutions, policies, and issues. This book is an excellent resource
for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about this
era.
