After the apocalypse

by Andrew J. Bacevich | 10 June 2022
PAPERBACK
The purpose of U.S. foreign policy has, at least theoretically, been to keep Americans safe. Yet as we confront a radically changed world, it has become indisputably clear that the terms of the policy have failed. Washington's insistence that a market economy is compatible with the common good, its faith in the idea of the 'West' and its 'special relationships', its conviction that global military primacy is the key to a stable and sustainable world order - these have brought endless wars and a succession of moral and material disasters. In a bold reconception of America's place in the world, informed by thinking across the political spectrum, Andrew Bacevich lays down a new approach - one that is based on moral pragmatism, mutual coexistence, and war as a last resort.
