Hegemonic Globalisation
«’The war in Afghanistan raises in the most acute fashion possible the central question of our time - and possibly of the new millennium: to what extent does the United States still dominate in the international system? There have been many attempts to resolve this conundrum, but none more illuminating and challenging than that advanced in this sophisticated study. Looking behind the headlines Thanh Duong reveals the deeper sources of US hegemony and why earlier talk of America’s decline as a great power was so much hot air. Essential reading for anybody wishing to understand how and why the 21st century might be American too.’ Professor Michael Cox, University of Wales, Aberystwyth, UK ’Duong’s book is a careful study of US foreign policy and its relations with...leading entities.’ Turkkaya Ataöv '...contains a number of valuable insights and highlights many useful sources...'

This title was first published in 2002. This innovative work analyses how the United States has laid down the foundations for global power. It reassesses and re-evaluates the declinist-renewal argument and challenges conventional balance of power theories, demonstrating how the United States is attempting to ’hegemonically globalise’ the entire international system.
