Trends And Tragedies In American Foreign Policy by Michael Parenti
A critical, polemical analysis arguing that U.S. foreign policy is driven by imperial economic and geopolitical interests rather than lofty ideals, using military force, covert action, and propaganda to protect corporate and elite power; the book traces recurring patterns—Cold War anticommunism, support for dictators, interventions in Vietnam and Latin America, and encouragement of neoliberal policies—that often produce widespread suffering and undermine democracy. It exposes myths of humanitarianism and exceptionalism, documents the human and political costs of interventions, and calls for reassessing American policy priorities in light of these recurring tragedies.
