Zusammenfassung: | "This sharp and authoritative account of American foreign relations analyzes the last 15 years of foreign policy, since the end of the Cold War, in relation to the last 40 years. In 1989, the US emerged as victor from the Cold War struggle. But what did victory mean? In the US, commentators were divided in their views: some feared their nation's eclipse by more successful trading powers or blocs; others were concerned that undoubted military pre-eminence was in effect financed by foreigners." "A little over a decade later, these worries seem remote - but others have replaced them. The attacks on the World Trade Center on 11 September 2001, gave the US a new and unwelcome sense of vulnerability, while the responses of the Bush administration have created grave misgivings in many parts of the world. This study gives readers an overview and understanding of the recent history of US foreign relations from the viewpoint of one of the most respected authorities in the field."--BOOK JACKET. |

adam_text | This sharp and authoritative account of American
foreign relations analyzes the last 15 years of foreign
policy, since the end of the Cold War, in relation to
the last 40 years. In 1989, the US emerged as victor
from the Cold War struggle. But what did victory
mean? In the US, commentators were divided in their
views: some feared their nation’s eclipse by more
successful trading powers or blocs; others were
concerned that undoubted military pre-eminence
was in effect financed by foreigners.
A little over a decade later, these worries seem remote
- but others have replaced them. The attacks on the
World Trade Center on 11 September 2001, gave the
US a new and unwelcome sense of vulnerability, while
the responses of the Bush administration have created
grave misgivings in many parts of the world. This
fascinating study gives readers an overview and
understanding of the recent history of US foreign
relations from the viewpoint of one of the most
respected authorities in the field.
