We are publishing four books this year which provide detailed assessments of the question of how did we get where we find ourselves today.
In addition, we are publishing assessments as well of aspects of shaping a way ahead, which provide a partial answer to how we leverage what we have in order to achieve what Western leaders determine we need to do in response to the rise of the multi-polar authoritarian dynamic.
There is one book which we are publishing that does both, even though it is rooted in explaining how we got to where we are in terms of the U.S. force structure.
That book is entitled: America, Global Military Competition, and Opportunities Lost: Reflections on the Work of Michael W. Wynne.
With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the West believed in the ascendency of liberal democracies. The United States became the sole superpower or hyper power and Western Europe celebrated a “peace dividend” and dismantled much of their defense capability.
