The Short American Century: a Postmortem
Andrew J Bacevich
Writing in "Life" magazine in February 1941, Henry Luce memorably announced the arrival of The American Century. The phrase caught on, as did the belief that America's moment was at hand. In this book, the author states that the 'century' has now ended, the victim of strategic miscalculation, military misadventures, and economic decline.
