A new report from Carnegie
Corporation grantee the Center for Strategic and International Studies
(CSIS), edited by Craig Cohen, CSIS Executive Vice President, and
Josiane Gabel, Executive Director of the Brzezinski Institute on
Geostrategy.
“Is America in retreat?” That’s the question John J.
Hamre, CSIS President and CEO poses in his introduction to this
compelling new report. He says the challenges the country faces
internationally do not lend themselves to quick fixes or retreating
behind Fortress America, and the real question is whether our domestic
politics are up to the effort it takes to lead from within. This is the
dominant issue behind the articles in this annual CSIS publication.
The topics covered here include deterrence, Putin,
the Middle East, Asia, and Ebola, and the contributors are well known
experts in their areas. Read their opinions
and decide for yourself: Will the world still look to the U.S. for
political, security, and economic leadership, or are alternatives
emerging? As Hamre writes, “The only thing that could truly send America
into retreat is ourselves.”
