Dust jacket hand covered in protective archival grade Mylar for many worry free years of reading/collecting! A bold and urgent perspective on how American foreign policy must change in response to the shifting world order of the twenty-first century, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Limits of Power and The Age of Illusions. The purpose of U.S. foreign policy has, at least theoretically, been to keep Americans safe. Yet as we confront a radically changed world, it has become indisputably clear that the terms of that policy have failed. Washington's insistence that a market economy is compatible with the common good, its faith in the idea of the "West" and its "special relationships," its conviction that global military primacy is the key to a stable and sustainable world order these have brought endless wars and a succession of moral and material disasters. In a bold reconception of America's place in the world, informed by thinking from across the political spectrum, Andrew J. Bacevich founder and president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, a bipartisan Washington think tank dedicated to foreign policy lays down a new approach one that is based on moral pragmatism, mutual coexistence, and war as a last resort. Confronting the threats of the future accelerating climate change, a shift in the international balance of power, and the ascendance of information technology over brute weapons of war his vision calls for nothing less than a profound overhaul of our understanding of national security. Crucial and provocative, After the Apocalypse sets out new principles to guide the once-but-no-longer sole superpower as it navigates a transformed world. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. vii, [3], 296, [2] pages. Inscribed by the author on the fep. The inscription reads For the River Park Community from Tad Daley RP Resident Member 2009-2018. Notes. Glossary of Acronyms. Organizations Working to Abolish Nuclear Weapons Forever. Index. Tad Daley has served as a policy advisor and speechwriter to Senator Alan Cranston, Congresswoman Diane Watson, and Congressman Dennis Kucinich, and was a member for many years of the International Policy Department at the RAND Corporation. Tad Daley has written a book for the general reader about this most crucial of contemporary challenges. Apocalypse Never maintains that the abolition of nuclear weapons is both essential and achievable, and reveals in fine detail what we need to do to make it a reality. Daley insists that the nuclear challenge in its many incarnation--nuclear terror, nuclear accident, a nuclear crisis spinning out of control--poses the single most immediate peril. Daley launches a wholesale assault on the nuclear double standard--the notion that the United States permits itself thousands of these weapons but forbids others from aspiring to even one. Apocalypse Never makes the case that a comprehensive nuclear policy agenda from President Obama, one that fully integrates nonproliferation with disarmament, can both eliminate immediate nuclear dangers and set us irreversibly on the road to abolition. In jargon-free language, Daley explores the possible verification measures, enforcement mechanisms, and governance structures of a nuclear weaponfree world.
