Abstract
With the winding down of the American
military presence in Iraq and Afghanistan
together with increased instability in Pakistan,
a number of thoughtful books have begun
to appear assessing America’s approach
towards the region and US foreign policy in
general. Steven Glain’s important contribution,
State vs. Defense: The Battle to Define
America’s Empire, is a welcome addition to
this list. While other authors have generally
focused on more narrow aspects of these
conflicts, Glain takes a broader approach,
calling into question the apparent militarization
of US foreign policy.
