Subject(s):

UNITED STATES -- INTERNATIONAL SECURITY

Summary: Presents an argument that the United States is - and should continue to be - the world's guardian. It sets forth a strategic analysis with nine basic themes as guides to where, when, and how America should be involved in international security affairs. The author's constructive critique of recent trends in national security is comprehensive, rooting defense issues and prospective solutions in both U.S. national security policy and the emerging international security environment. It concludes that the U.S. serves itself by selectively serving the world. It also argues that military, strategic, and political effectiveness are separate issues and that goals for each of these areas should be effectively articulated to the American public and the world community.
