Description

Stanley Hoffmann has remarked that "it wasn't I who chose to study world politics. World politics forced themselves upon me." A rootless child of World War II, Austrian, French, and later American, he has always maintained a unique balance and perspective on global affairs. Hoffmann brings together in this volume his important recent work on international politics. Many published here for the first time, these essays offer incisive reflections upon the reemergence of nationalism and ethnic conflicts in Europe, the redefined role of military intervention, and other uncertainties brought on by the demise of the Cold War. Hoffmann weighs the influence on theory and policy of such disparate figures as John Rawls, Hedley Bull, and George Schultz.
