What is After the Apocalypse: America's Role in a World Transformed (American Empire Project) about?

<p><b>A bold and urgent perspective on how American foreign policy must change in response to the shifting world order of the twenty-first century, from the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Limits of Power </i>and <i>The Age of Illusions</i>.</b><br><br>The purpose of U.S. foreign policy has, at least theoretically, been to keep Americans safe. Yet as we confront a radically changed world, it has become indisputably clear that the terms of that policy have failed. Washington’s insistence that a market economy is compatible with the common good, its faith in the idea of the “West” and its “special relationships,” its conviction that global military primacy is the key to a stable and sustainable world order—these have brought endless wars and a succession of moral and material disasters.<br><br>In a bold reconception of America’s place in the world, informed by thinking from across the political spectrum, Andrew J. Bacevich—founder and president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, a bipartisan Washington think tank dedicated to foreign policy—lays down a new approach—one that is based on moral pragmatism, mutual coexistence, and war as a last resort.
