GREAT DELUSION - JOHN J MEARSHEIMER KARTONIERT ...

In this major statement  the renowned international-relations scholar John Mearsheimer argues
that liberal hegemony  the foreign policy pursued by the United States since the Cold War ended
is doomed to fail. It makes far more sense  he maintains  for Washington to adopt a more
restrained foreign policy based on a sound understanding of how nationalism and realism
constrain great powers abroad. It is widely believed in the West that the United States should
spread liberal democracy across the world  foster an open international economy  and build
institutions. This policy of remaking the world in America's image is supposed to protect human
rights  promote peace  and make the world safe for democracy. But this is not what has
happened. Instead  the United States has ended up as a highly militarized state fighting wars
that undermine peace  harm human rights  and threaten liberal values at home. Mearsheimer tells
us why this has happened--Amazon.com.
