Publisher's Synopsis
The first edition of ""America Recommitted"" was published in 1991, just as a sweeping transformation of the international environment took place. China had reverted to a harsh authoritarian rule; the Soviet Union was on the verge of disintergration; US-led forces had been deployed to Saudi Arabia but the Gulf War had not yet been fought; the former Yugoslavia was unravelling, setting the stage for later military interventions in Bosnia and Kosovo. This revised edition offers an assessment of the United States' national interests and draws conclusions about the proper role of the world's only remaining superpower.
