1. 1. Exercise Of Power

   American Failures, Successes, and a New Path Forward in the Post–Cold War World

   

   A seasoned statesman reviews post–Cold War American foreign policy, diagnosing costly failures—overreliance on military force, mismanaged nation‑building, and poor coordination across government—as well as limited successes, and uses personal experience to argue for a more pragmatic, restrained approach that prioritizes clear objectives, diplomacy, alliances, intelligence capabilities, and realistic assessments of when and how to use U.S. power.
