American foreign policy is currently facing significant upheaval, particularly following the rise of Donald Trump and his "America First" platform, leading to uncertainty about the U.S. role globally. Geopolitical challenges—from the South China Sea to the Middle East and Eastern Europe—are increasingly severe, and traditional answers to strategic questions are now open for debate. This work by a leading scholar of grand strategy offers nuanced assessments of critical issues in American foreign policy today. It explores whether the U.S. has blundered since the Cold War or if its grand strategy has been largely effective. It questions if America is in terminal decline or can maintain its global edge, and whether the Obama administration's approach was one of retrenchment or a strategic maximization of U.S. power. The book also examines the implications of Trump's presidency for American internationalism and the potential consequences of a radical U.S. withdrawal from global affairs. Additionally, it considers the military power necessary for the U.S. in today's international landscape. Addressing these pressing issues is crucial for understanding America's foreign relations and potential future paths. This collection of essays serves as a valuable guide to navigating the complexities of America's role in the world amidst ongoing crises.
