Sommario/riassunto |
|
Examines how an America once possessed with a disdain for the use of force has come to embrace the military as the only means of securing a stable world order. This work shows how American militarism emerged as a reaction to the Vietnam War. It warns of a dangerous dual obsession that has taken hold of Americans, conservatives, and liberals alike. |
