State Of The Union Addresses

By Jimmy Carter

Book Overview

State of the Union Addresses is a collection of speeches delivered by former President Jimmy Carter during his presidency from 1977 to 1981. This book includes all four of his State of the Union addresses, which were given annually to Congress to inform them of the current state of the country and the administration's plans for the future. Carter's speeches cover a wide range of topics, including energy policy, foreign relations, economic issues, and social concerns. He discusses his efforts to reduce inflation, increase employment, and promote human rights both domestically and abroad. The book also includes an introduction by Carter, providing context for each speech and reflecting on his presidency. This collection offers insight into the challenges faced by Carter during his time in office and his vision for the future of the United States. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American politics and history.Three basic developments have helped to shape our challenges: the steady growth and increased projection of Soviet military power beyond its own borders; the overwhelming dependence of the Western democracies on oil supplies from the Middle East; and the press of social and religious and economic and political change in the many nations of the developing world, exemplified by the revolution in Iran.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
