Summary, etc. The Persian Gulf War underscores the perilous state of global poli tics only a year after the end of the Cold War. AMERICA'S PURPOSE is the best appraisal yet of our new position in that world..<br/><br/>This book features sixteen passion ately argued essays by our most emi nent strategic thinkers, including Jeane J. Kirkpatrick, Stephen J. Solarz, Charles Krauthammer, Ted Galen Carpenter, and Patrick J. Buchanan. These crisp, provocative chapters outline a wide range of new options for Americans to consider. Together they form a comprehensive handbook for conducting U.S. foreign policy in the 1990s.<br/><br/>The sudden end of the Cold War has underscored the timeless national dilemma: to exercise power abroad or to "Come Home, America." Which should be the guiding force of U.S. foreign policy in the post-Cold War world? The authors do not pretend to agree on the answer to this question. Indeed, their views are often sharply divergent.<br/><br/>Some chapters are bold statements of manifest destiny, calling for Amer ica to pursue "universal dominion" of the world. Others are frankly isola tionist, underscroing the importance of "speaking to ourselves" now that we have the opportunity.
