[183]-194) and index.
Table of Contents: Introduction: war without exits -- The crisis of profligacy -- The political crisis -- The military crisis -- Conclusion: the limits of power; The Limits of Power identifies a profound triple crisis facing America: the economy, in remarkable disarray, can no longer be fixed by relying on expansion abroad the government, transformed by an imperial presidency, is a democracy in form only U.S. involvement in endless wars, driven by a deep infatuation with military power, has been a catastrophe for the body politic. These pressing problems threaten all of us, Republicans and Democrats. If the nation is to solve its predicament, it will need the revival of a distinctly American approach: the neglected tradition of realism. Andrew J. Bacevich, uniquely respected across the political spectrum, offers a historical perspective on the illusions that have governed American policy since 1945. The realism he proposes includes respect for power and its limits sensitivity to unintended consequences aversion to claims of exceptionalism skepticism of easy solutions, especially those involving force and a conviction that the books will have to balance. Only a return to such principles, Bacevich argues, can provide common ground for fixing America's urgent problems before the damage becomes irreparable.--From publisher description
