It shows how this seismic shift in international relations has developed through the major global wars of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. It uses a wide variety of historical archival material to give the background to the current and historical American obsession with creating the world order, one that both reflects the American national interest but also can be said to have established the major security, economic, organisational and normative pillars of our epoch. In addition it provides excellent background reading for the current debate about American foreign policy and the origins of 'neo-conservatism' in international relations. This edition updates a very successful first edition of the title, with additional material to take into account changes in the global order since 2001 and the beginning of the 'War on Terror'. 606 $aWorld politics$y20th century 606 $aInternational relations$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aInternational relations 610 $aAllied relationships. 610 $aAnglo-American new world order. 610 $aFirst World War. 610 $aGeorge W.
