Summary/Abstract |
Should Americans be worried that the international system is growing decidedly more plural and less hegemonic? Can a more plural world system be avoided, given the awakening of China, the integration of Europe, and the revival of Russia? And what would be the cost of trying to avoid it? US military spending already is roughly equal to that of the rest of the world combined.

Summary/Abstract |
Much of what purports to be new American thinking on international politics amounts to a bland repackaging of old shibboleths. Almost everyone, even including those who predict the rise of the rest, assumes the United States will remain, in the words of former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, the indispensable nation.

Summary/Abstract |
The world is changing. New relations and animosities are emerging as the fulcrum of global power migrates eastward. The new world order will reveal itself in time. Meanwhile, I am as uncertain as anyone else about the future structure of world politics.

Summary/Abstract |
In the postwar period, US power and prestige beyond the nation's military prowess have been largely based on the relative size and success of America's economy. This strength enabled the United States to promote worldwide economic openness and encourage buying in to a set of institutions, formal and informal, that resulted in increasing international eocnomic integration.
