International Relations
Some perspectives on foreign policy of the US government:
- Is an International Consensus on Foreign Intervention Possible? - Daalder and Steinberg of the Brookings Institution believe an international consensus on rules on when a war is legitimate is possible. But what if a powerful, nuclear-weapons state decides to defy the consensus? Who will enforce such rules?
- State Department Revises Flawed Terrorism Report - The annual US State Department "Patterns of Global Terrorism" report was a colossal politicized failure before 9/11, with Pakistan and Saudi aid to Bin Laden glossed over year after year, in favor of assessing countries such as Cuba as state sponsors of terrorism. Three years after 9/11, this report released in April 2004 continued to miss the realities of terrorism.
- A Global Power Shift in the Making - Asia is rising fast, and the west, including the US, must adapt, or be left behind. Foreign Affairs, July/August 2004.

Biggest Failure Holds Lesson for Bush - Daalder & Destler, June 2004
- Entanglements in SE
Asia - "Instead of entangling itself in squabbles of limited international significance, Washington should encourage friendly states to better arm themselves and to create cooperative relationships with each other...". Doug Bandow, Cato Policy Analysis, May 2001
- The End of Power - The anarchy bogeyman surfaces as the unipolar moment slips away. Niall Ferguson, Wall Street Journal, June 2004
