Description: New/New. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall 1843545306 The common perception of the United States is as an isolationist nation with little regard for the rest of the World. From Washington's farewell address to the Monroe Doctrine, America's tradition of isolation and separation has been confirmed again and again. Or so it is widely assumed. In "Dangerous Nation", Robert Kagan demonstrates that whilst we tend to believe that Americans do not care what happens in most of the rest of the world, in fact, they ... read more

"From the other reviews and blurbs, it will be clear that Kagan adopts a stance that is at variance with conventional wisdom. In his reading of American history, he asserts that American foreign policy has generally always been expansionist instead of isolationist. While I'm not in a position to evaluate the soundness of Kagan's thesis, I did find this to be a very readable and accessible history of America's conduct of foreign policy from its inception to the Spanish-American war at the end of the 19th century.
Readers looking for a more neutral, more conventional, or just more even-handed history should look elsewhere. Note that this is the first part of what is intended to be a two volume series."
"An interesting and different perspective on the history of US foreign policy. It is both well written and brings to light various events, incidents, and arguments that have often been overlooked by conventional history."
"Who wants to read about early American history from a prominent neoconservative intellectual and foreign policy ideologue who cofounded, with Wiliam Kristol, the Project for the New American Century? I think you do, no really, you do."
