Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
In this hard-hitting book, Benjamin R. Barber--one of the world's most inspiring voices on behalf of democratic citizenship--marshals American political and diplomatic history to lambast the Bush administration's attempt to fight fear (of terrorism) with fear (of "preventive" war).
Barber examines the controversial issues that underlie both the Cold War theory of containment and deterrence and the dilemmas faced by America today. He argues forcefully against unilateralism, nuclear deterrence, and reliance on military solutions. And he inveighs against the tendency of recent administrations to confuse the spread of McWorld--that seductive blend of free-market ideology and American brands—with the spread of democracy.
Barber argues for an America that promotes cooperation, multilateralism, international law, and pooled sovereignty. For as law and citizenship alone secure liberty within nations, law and citizenship alone can secure liberty among them, freeing them from fear.
Review:
"Provocative work from an incisive critic...."
