Reagan's Doctrines argues that Ronald Reagan played a pivotal role in reshaping norms of U.S. conduct, engagement, and intervention in the Middle East.

Randall Fowler reveals how Ronald Reagan's contribution to U.S. policy in the Middle East was doctrinal - defined as a sustained rhetorical action undertaken by a presidential administration to reconstitute the norms of U.S. foreign policy - rather than episodic. During his presidency, Reagan confronted a region marked by upheaval, terrorism, the Iran-Iraq War, and the rise of political Islam by developing three doctrines to guide U.S. actions in the Middle East: (1) Israel is a strategic ally, (2) state-sponsored terrorism is an act of war, and (2) a holistic commitment to Persian Gulf security. In bringing these three elements together, this book reconsiders Reagan's inimitable legacy on U.S. politics and international affairs and how Reagan's articulated and instituted principles have guided U.S. defense strategy in the Middle East for decades since his presidency.
