Paul D. Miller offers a tough minded critique of recent trends in
American grand strategy. He rejects retrenchment but also the
excesses of liberal internationalism. He prescribes a conservative
internationalist grand strategy to preserve the American security
and leadership in the world while avoiding overstretch. Originally
written before the 2016 US presidential election, this first
paperback edition contains a new preface that repositions the
book's argument for the Trump era. Miller explains why President
Trump's nationalist vision for American grand strategy damages US
interests and world order. Miller blends academic rigor with his
experiences as former member of the National Security Council and
intelligence community to offer prescriptions for US grand
strategy. He advocates for narrowing regional priorities and
focusing on five strategic objectives: balancing against the
nuclear autocracies, championing liberalism to maintain a favorable
balance of power, thwarting the transnational jihadist movement,
investing in governance in weak and failed states, and
strengthening homeland security. This book is a must read for
scholars and students of international affairs and for anyone who
is concerned about America's role in the world.
