Zusammenfassung:"The United States is the world's strongest power and Australia's closest ally. Its role in the world matters intensely to us. During a presidential election year, we always try to track closely possible shifts in US strategic policy. But even by those standards, 2008 is a special year. It marks the transition from the 9/11 president to his successor, and brings to the fore the whole issue of the consistency and durability of US strategic policy in the post-9/11 era. This report is intended to help our readers think through the relevant issues. It does so by examining the broader contours of the US role in the world, teasing readers to think about the 'long poles' in the strategic tent as well as the possibilities for change. It canvasses the 'different Americas' that might lie ahead, and looks specifically at the policies that Barack Obama and John McCain might bring to the White House. And it places the US role in the world into context, with a chapter that looks at the 'rise of the rest', to use Fareed Zakaria's words."--Executive director's introduction.
