The main purpose of this book is to explain how (mainly) American,
but also British and other Western, policy makers have planned and
largely managed to create an international order in their own
image, the so-called 'New World Order'. 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'. -- .
