| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In The Abandonment of the West, Michael Kimmage explores the relationship between American foreign policy and the ‘West’. The concept of the West, once a unifying idea in American culture, has undergone a sharp re-evaluation over the last century. Kimmage does not idealise the West or its history, giving a voice to the many critics of Western civilisation who have pointed out examples of US hypocrisy. At the same time, he notes that the West, especially in its heyday, accomplished great things, and he cautions against its wholesale abandonment – particularly at a time when the US and its allies are facing a host of domestic and international challenges. |
