Power Rules : How Common Sense Can Rescue American Foreign Policy

  • Power Rules : How Common Sense Can Rescue American  Foreign Policy
  • Attribution

    Leslie H. Gelb
  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, Harper, 2009
  • Description

    From one of the nation’s leading foreign-policy minds comes a provocative new account of how to think about?and use?America’s power in the twenty-first century. 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. Power Rules is an impassioned challenge to both liberals and conservatives and a plea to reclaim the true meaning of power and the essential role of common sense in solving global problems.
