Senior Fellow Andrew Latham writes for The Hill on a new book from Ali Wyne that offers what Latham believes is the first systematic critique of the frame of great-power competition to date.
Although nowhere fully articulated, the undeniable takeaway from “America’s Great-Power Opportunity” is that the 2020s are in many ways analogous to the 1940s. Then, in the aftermath of a global depression and world war, the United States was uniquely positioned to build a new international order, one that reflected American values and interests even as it sought to create new norms and institutions for conflict management, economic stability and collective problem solving.
