To declare oneself a conservative in American foreign policy is to
enter immediately into a fractious, long-standing debate. Should
America retreat from the world, deal with the world as it is, or
try to transform it in its own image? Which school of thought -
traditionalist, realist, or neoconservative - is truest to the
country's ideals and interests? With the dramatic shift in American
foreign policy since 9/11, these differences have been brought into
stark relief, especially by the Bush administration's decision to
go to war in Iraq. This book brings together the most articulate
and influential voices in the debate among conservatives over the
tactics and strategy of America's engagement in Iraq. Its
contribution run the gamut from protests to second thoughts to
full-throated endorsements, and represent a vivid sampling of the
ideological currents likely to influence the Bush administration in
its ongoing efforts in Iraq and the wider Middle East. Gary Rosen
is Managing Editor of Commentary. He holds a PhD in political
science from Harvard and is the author of "American Compact: James
Madison and the Problem of Founding." His articles and reviews have
appeared in Commentary, The New York Times, The Wall Street
Journal, and The Washington Post.
