Summary
""Derek Reveron boldly challenges the conventional wisdom on the militarization of U.S. foreign policy by contending that all the goodness of development and diplomacy around the world simply won't happen without better security-and that means better partner militaries. He argues persuasively that the 'next' U.S. military will be one less fixated on preparing for high-tech future fights than a force centrally engaged in security cooperation abroad: quietly deploying advice, assistance, and the power of the democratic example... This is a realistic vision of our future global military footprint
