Article Title
Foundations of U.S. Stature and Security in the World
Abstract
How may the stature and security of the United States, so passionately a concern for many and so profoundly important to the character and direction of our emerging global society, be pursued responsibly? This question is the burden of this article, in which the author examines and rejects a number of policy options to the challenges he sees Washington now facing. He rejects these policy options because he finds them miscast, incomplete, counterproductive, or representative of symptoms rather than causes. He suggests, instead, how the United States might advance its interests and the global interests and predicts a rather unwelcoming future for the United States—and the world—if Washington were to continue following the current extension of nineteenth- and twentieth-century “national security” practices.
