Klare does an excellent job in setting the stage for a discussion of American foreign policy after the fall of the Soviet Union. I enjoyed how he utilized historical inferences from Vietnam and Korea to compare and contrast warfare during the Gulf War. I would have, however, appreciated more insight on the applicability of the "Rogue Doctrine" in current foreign affairs. I question its success in the current UNSCOM-Iraq standoff, especially with the most recent round of strikes in Dec. Is there a more successful alternative policy? Nonetheless, Klare provides excellent scenarios for future foreign policy makers. A must read for students of American foreign policy in the post-cold war era!
