Uloga Henryja Kissingera u stvaranju američke vanjske politike
Henry Kissinger’s role in the creation of American foreign policy

Summary/Abstract: Henry Kissinger is one of the most eminent and influential intellectuals in American foreign policy. His work and achievements may be divided into three phases of his participation in the creation of American foreign policy. In the first – scholarly – phase of his career, he criticized US foreign policy. His works from that period clearly reflect his realpolitik outlook. Particularly important for his life and work is the second phase when he was able, as a national security adviser and later as Secretary of State for presidents Nixon and Ford, to use his remarkable intellectual capital and successfully practice realpolitik as the creator and proponent of American foreign policy. After his retirement from foreign policy administration, Kissinger did not cease to use his clout in the field of international relations and American foreign policy. He has been one of the most significant American intellectuals who have exerted an influence on American foreign policy. Henry Kissinger jedan je od najpoznatijih i najutjecajnijih američkih vanjskopolitičkih intelektualaca, čiji se rad i djelovanje može promatrati kroz tri faze njegova sudjelovanja u stvaranju američke vanjske politike. U prvoj znanstvenoj fazi svoje karijere kritizirao je vanjsku politiku SAD. Kroz te radove jasno je vidljiv njegov realpolitički pogled na svijet. Za njegov život i rad posebno je značajna druga faza, kad je kao savjetnik za nacionalnu sigurnost, a zatim i državni tajnik predsjednika Nixona i Forda, bio u mogućnosti iskoristiti svoj intelektualni kapital i uspješno prakticirati realpolitiku kroz stvaranje i vođenje američke vanjske politike. Poslije odlaska iz vanjskopolitičke administracije, Kisssinger nije prestao djelovati u području međunarodnih odnosa i američke vanjske politike. On je bio i ostao jedan od najvećih američkih intelektualaca koji su imali, i još imaju presudan utjecaj na američku vanjsku politiku.
