Power rules : how common sense can rescue American foreign policy / Leslie H. Gelb. by Gelb, Leslie H. New York : Harper, c2009. Subjects Power (Social sciences) -- United States.   World politics -- 21st century.   United States -- Foreign relations -- 2009-   United States -- Foreign relations -- 2001-2009. ISBN:  9780061714542 : 0061714542 Description:  xvii, 334 p. ; 24 cm. Edition:  1st ed. Requests:  0 Summary:  Leading foreign policy expert Gelb offers guidelines on how American power actually works and should be wielded in today's tumultuous world. He argues that Washington risks losing the essential lifeblood of its national security--its power--unless American leaders relearn the lessons of how to use that power. The United States remains far and away the most powerful country in a world where power remains sharply pyramidal. But the U.S. is not the dominant power, and it can't dictate to others. Gelb persuasively shows that America's future power must be based on the principle of mutual indispensability: Washington is the indispensable leader because it alone can galvanize coalitions to solve major international problems (and all nations know this), while other key nations are indispensable partners in getting the job done. The reality is this: succeed together or fail apart.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 327.73 Ge Checked In Add Copy to MyList
