Book summary

Originally an essay called "Power and Weakness" in the journal Policy Review, this influential and cogently argued book by a Washington Post writer explores the differences in world view that lie between the U.S. and Europe--chiefly, the way the vast American military machine has forced Europeans to concentrate more on diplomacy than on war as a way to solve international disputes and maintain peace.

Media reviews

"[Kagan's] prose is lucid and elegant, and his arguments are thoughtfully marshaled....Kagan demonstrates a confidence and authority that demand serious attention.... The true measure of Kagan's small book is that it is hard to imagine any future serious discussion of trans-Atlantic relations or America's role in the world without reference to it."
