In The American Way of Strategy, Lind argues that the goal of U.S.
foreign policy has always been the preservation of the American way
of life--embodied in civilian government, checks and balances, a
commercial economy, and individual freedom. Lind describes how
successive American statesmen--from George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton to Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight
Eisenhower, and Ronald Reagan--have pursued an American way of
strategy that minimizes the dangers of empire and anarchy by two
means: liberal internationalism and realism. At its best, the
American way of strategy is a well-thought-out and practical guide
designed to preserve a peaceful and demilitarized world by
preventing an international system dominated by imperial and
militarist states and its disruption by anarchy. When American
leaders have followed this path, they have led our nation from
success to success, and when they have deviated from it, the
results have been disastrous. Framed in an engaging historical
narrative, the book makes an important contribution to contemporary
debates. The American Way of Strategy is certain to change the way
that Americans understand U.S. foreign policy.
