This book examines George W. Bush's transformation of American foreign policy and the repercussions for the future. It recounts how the Bush administration's direct actions in response the September 11th, 2001, toppled the Taliban and displayed American strength, but by 2002 they had also alienated many of America's traditional allies. The pitfalls of Bush's defiant and unilateralist style of leadership are now apparent: a "global war on terror" and the invasion of Iraq are costly in both human and economic terms. America needs broad-based international co-operation. Will Bush's re-election mean that the robust hegemony of his first term is here to stay, or will he moderate his style and objectives to mend fences with his old allies? It features a balanced and up-to-date analysis of U.S. foreign policy before and since the election of 2004. The author views current events with historical insights.
