In so doing, the conflict also brought into sharp focus the dilemmas -- military, political, and moral -- confronting a liberal democracy intent on wielding preeminent power on a global scale.Kosovo War, 1998-1999United StatesMilitary policyKosovo War, 1998-1999.949.7103Bacevich Andrew J472053Cohen Eliot A1145870AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910790102903321War over Kosovo3697686UNINA
