Women and the Shaping of American Foreign Policy, 1917-1994
Rutgers University Press
There are more than fifty women in the United States Congress and nearly one-fourth of foreign service posts are held by women. Nevertheless, the United States has yet to entrust a senior foreign policy job, outside of the United Nations, to a woman. Beneath these statistics lurk central myths that Jeffreys-Jones cogently identifies and describes: the "Iron Lady"--Too masculine; the "lover of peace" - too "pink"; the weak or the promiscuous. These are to name only a few.
