What’s Happening

World In Crisis: The End of the American Century is an implicit rejoinder to what Kolko himself calls the lunatics in the Bush regime. It is the typicially unique type of excellence in political observation I, at any rate, expect of Kolko. The essays in the current volume are a second, yet enduring draft of history reviewing the political turmoil of the last four or five year. They examine the finanical crisis, US foreign policy, Israel, the current and historical US alliance system, US intelligence agencies, and other US policies. – Tracy McLellen
