Book Description

October 26, 1994
Is it morally acceptable for one nation to police the world? Are there circumstances under which one nation has either the right or the obligation to dominate the others? This important and timely book is the first to examine these and other moral issues raised by America's status as the sole world superpower after the end of the Cold War. Brilmayer's book is a brilliant demonstration of the importance of normative evaluation and of the moral problems underlying the enforcement of international law.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent analysis and responses to the neo-left, July 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: American Hegemony: Political Morality in a One-Superpower World (Hardcover)
Ms. Brilmayer shows an exceptional talent for penetrating analysis of international affairs, providing a strong case for a "liberalist" approach to American Hegemony. She also answers many of the modern leftist thinkers, by providing excellent answers to arguments such as "cultural relativism" as a reason that America has no right to intervene in other countries.
