In this incisive and controversial book, Chalmers Johnson lays out in vivid detail the dangers faced by our overextended empire, which insists on projecting its military power to every corner of the earth and using American capital and markets to force global economic integration on its own terms. From a case of rape by U.S. servicemen in Okinawa to our role in Asia's financial crisis, from our early support for Saddam Hussein to our conduct in the Balkans, Johnson reveals the ways in which our misguided policies are planting the seeds of future disaster. 650 $a Asia $x United States. $x United States. 650 $a Audiobooks. 650 $a Imperialism $x 20th century. $x 20th century. 650 $a Intervention (International law) 650 $a United States $x 1989- $x 1989- 650 $a United States $x Asia. $x Asia. 650 $a United States $x Military policy. 700 $a Weiner, Tom. 856 $u http://wilbor.lib.overdrive.com/ContentDetails.htm?ID=0CE9653F-6322-4B3A-BC96-77864BCE29C3 $3 URL 941 $a 2 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20110721010518.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20101023011136.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=09932ACCDE6B11DF9C83A1F56AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
