Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This stellar collection of Paul Craig Roberts essays dating from 2013
explores the extreme dangers in Washington's imposition of vassalage
on other countries and Washingtonâs resurrection of distrust among
nuclear powers, the very distrust that Reagan and Gorbachev worked to
eliminate.
Roberts explains how the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 removed
the only check on Washington's ability to act unilaterally. The United
Statesâ position as the sole remaining superpower led to the euphoric
proclamation of âthe end of historyâ and to Washingtonâs presumption of
the victory of âAmerican democratic-capitalismâ over all other systems.
The neoconservatives became entrenched in successive American
administrations, both Republican and Democratic. Their ideology of US
global hegemonyâthe doctrine that no other power will be allowed to
arise that could constrain US unilateral actionâhas become a
foundational premise of US foreign policy and has led to reckless
intervention in Ukraine and an irresponsible assault on Russian national
interest.
In pursuit of hegemony, Washington has expanded NATO to Russiaâs
border, instigated âcolor revolutionsâ in former constituent parts of the
Soviet Union, announced a âpivot to Asiaâ to encircle China, orchestrated
a coup in Ukraine, demonized Putin, and imposed warlike sanctions
against Russia. These reckless and irresponsible actions have brought
back the risk of nuclear war.
This succession of events has impelled Robertsâfollowing an illustrious
career in government, journalism and academiaâto perform the
clarifying function abandoned by the mainstream media of examining the
agendas at work and the risks entailed. His insightful commentary is
followed all over the world. In February 2015, Roberts was invited to
address a major International conference in Moscow hosted by Institutes
of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Moscow State Institute of
International Relations, where he delivered the address which is the title
of this book.
In Robertsâ assessment, Washington's drive for hegemony is not only
unnecessary but unrealistic and filled with peril for Americans and the
world at large. This book is a call to awareness that ignorance and
propaganda are leading the world toward unspeakable disaster.
