"This book of essays explores the theoretical, historical, and foreign policy implications of American power and postwar order. Written over the last decade and a half, these scholarly and policy essays form a sort of "intellectual arc" of inquiry. In this unique study of a superpower, Ikenberry argues that though the American world order is now in upheaval, in the end, the United States still has a powerful incentive to sponsor and operate within a liberal rules-based system."--Jacket.
