"It's hard to imagine any American reading this book and not seeing his country in a new, and deeply troubling, light." -The New York Times Book Review The United States has repeatedly asserted its right to intervene militarily against "failed states" around the globe.

Forceful, lucid, and meticulously documented, Failed States offers a comprehensive analysis of a global superpower that has long claimed the right to reshape other nations while its own democratic institutions are in severe crisis.
