The attempt by the United States since 9/11 to establish liberal political regimes in the Middle East and in the mountains of Afghanistan was doomed to fail—and for one simple reason.
Imperialism and militarism build empires, not liberalism.
And if we do not absorb this truth, the rest of the twenty-first century will be a repeat of its bloodstained beginning.
So says Christopher Coyne, Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and professor of economics at George Mason University, in this eye-opening, must-read book on America’s recent foreign policy failures.
Since the 19th century, the US government has used its immense power to promote liberal values and create a global liberal empire to “protect” them.
