Towards a New Diplomacy for the 21st Century.
Viewing America's international position through the immediate lens of policy choices rather than the distant hindsight of historical analysis, Henry Kissinger's eye-opening take on the country's current role as the world's dominant imperial power offers both an invaluable perspective on the state of the Union in global affairs as well as a careful, detailed prescription on exactly how we must proceed.
In nine accessibly written chapters, this book provides a crystalline assessment of how the United States' ascendancy as the world's dominant presence in the twentieth century may be effectively reconciled with the urgent need in the twenty-first century to achieve a bold new world order.
By examining America's present and future relations with Russia, China, Europe, the Middle East, and other regions in conjunction with emerging concerns such as globalisation, military intervention, free trade, and the planet's eroding natural environment, Dr Kissinger lays out a compelling and comprehensively drawn vision for American policy in approaching decades.
