Kurt M. Campbell. The Pivot: The Future of American Statecraft in Asia.
This is one of the first, feeble attempts of the American political establishment to come out of the lair of neoconservative thinking. Remarkably, the title contains "American statecraft", rather than a conventional "American power." Finally, and belatedly there is a recognition that after the end of the Cold War there could be countries with independent political sphere of influence, which even mighty United States must take into account. Fukuyama/Nye orthodoxy still disseminated by all International Relations departments simply denies this in favor of eternal American Imperium. Yet, there is nothing eternal in politics.
