Weighing impulses toward parochial nationalism against the ideal of cosmopolitan internationalism, the authors posit that what may be emerging is a new brand of American foreign policy that gives primacy to national self-interest but with considerable interest in universal human rights. Exceptions like Libya and Syria provide case studies for critical analysis and allow the authors to look to emerging dominant powers for indicators of new challenges to the commitment to universal human rights and humanitarian affairs in the context of the ongoing clash between liberalism and realism. 410 0$aInternational studies intensives. 606 $aHuman rights$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aExceptionalism$zUnited States 606 $aWorld politics$y21st century 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$xMoral and ethical aspects 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$xPublic opinion 615 0$aHuman rights$xGovernment policy 615 0$aExceptionalism 615 0$aWorld politics 676 $a327.73 676 $a327.73 700 $aForsythe$b David P.$f1941-,$0254425 701 $aMcMahon$b Patrice C$0947590 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153192903321 996 $aAmerican exceptionalism reconsidered$92141041 997 $aUNINA
