U.S. national security policy is at a critically important
crossroads. The Bush Doctrine of unilateralism, pre-emptive war,
and the imposition of democracy by force has proven disastrous. The
United States now finds itself vilified abroad, weakened at home,
and bogged down in a seemingly endless and unwinnable war. In To
Lead the World, Melvyn P. Leffler and Jeffrey W. Legro bring
together eleven of America's most esteemed writers and thinkers to
offer concrete, historically grounded suggestions for how America
can regain its standing in the world and use its power more wisely
than it has during the Bush years. Best-selling authors such as
David Kennedy, Niall Ferguson, Robert Kagan, Francis Fukuyama, and
Samantha Power address such issues as how the U.S. can regain its
respect in the world, respond to the biggest threats now facing the
country, identify reasonable foreign policy goals, manage the
growing debt burden, achieve greater national security, and
successfully engage a host of other problems left unsolved and in
many cases exacerbated by the Bush Doctrine. Representing a wide
range of perspectives, the writers gathered here place the current
foreign-policy predicament firmly in the larger context of American
and world history and draw upon realistic appraisals of both the
strengths and the limits of American power. They argue persuasively
that the kind of leadership that made the United States a great-and
greatly admired-nation in the past can be revitalized to meet the
challenges of the 21st century. Written by prize-winning authors
and filled with level-headed, far-sighted, and achievable
recommendations, To Lead the World will serve as a primary source
of political wisdom in the post-Bush era and will add immeasurably
to the policy debates surrounding the 2008 presidential election.
