How presidents allocate their attention is the subject of much popular commentary and speculation, but little systematic scholarly research. I focus on an apparent case of presidential "micromanagement"—the practice within the Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon White Houses of requiring presidential approval for small (often $5 to $10 million) foreign aid expenditures. I sketch the outlines of a theory of presidential attention, and show that the degree of presidential attention to such expenditures is a function of the changing balance of payments position of the United States, and officials' assessment of the severity of the Soviet threat in the less developed world.

Recent disclosures about the Cuban missile crisis suggest that organizational routines & plans did not significantly constrain US government choices. Rather than constituting fixed barriers to innovation, routines & plans can be relatively plastic & subject to strategic alterations or misrepresentations. Although this can be partly understood in terms of organizational processes, plans & routines are both a response to & the context for strategic interaction by organizational participants. The author presents evidence of this & suggests why decisionmakers may not plan even when planning is possible, & why plans may not be implemented even when they already exist. 67 References.
