Abstract
|
:
|
In this topical book, Richard Ned Lebow argues that it is possible to follow ethical policies while preserving national security. He shows how great realist thinkers saw links between interests and ethics and extends his analysis to offer a powerful critique of post-Cold War American foreign policy.
