内容説明
William Greider, one of Americas most respected political and economic journalists, explores how and why America has avoided coming to terms with the end of the Cold War eraand the troubling consequences for our fighting forces and our country. America possesses target overkill in staggering dimensions. Each year the new Department of Defense budget projects that next year or in subsequent years the financial squeeze will be magically resolved by increased spending. The military establishment marches forward to meet itself in financial crises. And the fundamental question remains unanswered: in a time of general peace, how much military power is enough? With vivid reportage, revealing anecdotes, and illuminating interviews, William Greider propels us into an engrossing debate about the addictive budget fixing and reprehensible expansion of our already bloated armed forces.
