Informationen zum Autor IVO H. DAALDER is a Senior Fellow in Foreign Policy Studies at the Brookings Institution.JAMES M. LINDSAY is Vice President, Director of Studies, and Maurice R. Greenberg Chair at the Council on Foreign Relations. Klappentext Winner of the 2003 Lionel Gelber PrizeA Foreign Affairs Bestseller"The commentary is judicious, the language sober, and given that both Daalder and Lindsay served in the Clinton White House-and that Daalder was recently an advisor to Howard Dean-the measured tone invests the book with that much more credibility."-The Washington Post"America Unbound deserves the closest attention. The research is admirable, the arguments are well marshaled, and the absence of stridency adds considerable authority to the portrayal of Bush as a president whose worldview simply made no allowance for others' doubting the purity of American motives."-Serge Schmemann, The New York Times Book Review"A provocative and original thesis-and also a caution to those who have underestimated George W. Bush's decisive and historic impact on the course of American foreign policy."-Robert Kagan, author, Of Paradise and Power"It is doubtful that another book will come along soon that covers all the important points of the administration's foreign policy with more clarity and evenhandedness."-Joshua Micah Marshall, Foreign Affairs"For those seeking to understand the Bush foreign policy and not merely to denounce it, this informative book will be highly useful."-Ronald Steel, The Nation"A useful analysis. . . . Their emphasis is less on the shift to preventive war than on the administration's doctrinaire analysis and its moralistic arrogance."-Arthur Schlesinger Jr., The New York Review of Books"America Unbound is refreshingly original and it makes the case for President Bush as the master of his own unilateralist revolution. Future examinations of Bush foreign policy will be measured against this authoritative book."-Daniel Schorr, National Public RadioA Brookings Institution Book Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
