Since the terrorist atrocities in New York and Washington on 11 September 2001 and the subsequent 'War on Terrorism', the question of American foreign policy has become more vital than ever. In this timely, thoughtful and important book America's most famous diplomatist explains why a new coherent foreign policy is urgently needed and what the goals of this policy should be. Kissinger covers the wide range of problems facing the United States at the beginning of a new millennium and a new presidency paying particular interest to the various 'hot spots' around the world. DOES AMERICA NEED A FOREIGN POLICY? offers a clear-eyed assessment of how the United States' dominant position may be effectively reconciled with the crucial need, in the twenty-first century, to achieve a bold new world order. In nine accessibly written chapters Kissinger examines America's present and future relations with Russia, China, Europe, the Middle East and other regions in the world. This is done in conjunction with emerging concerns such as globalisation, military intervention, free trade and the planet's eroding natural environment. In this fascinating book Dr Kissinger lays out a compelling, comprehensively drawn vision for American policy in the coming decades.
