''Superpower: Three Choices for America's Role in the World''〔Bremmer, Ian. 2015. (''Superpower: Three Choices for America's Role in the World'' ). New York: Portfolio/Penguin.〕 is a 2015 non-fiction book by Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer that explains the increasingly directionless and prohibitively expensive foreign policy of the United States. The book offers an analysis of the ways in which the US, since the end of the Cold War, has stumbled from crisis to crisis without a clear strategy. This is particularly true for US foreign policy in Eurasia and the Middle East. In ''Superpower'', Bremmer argues that ordinary Americans too often base their foreign policy choices on allegiance or opposition to the party in power. He, therefore, outlines three options for readers to consider what sort of country America should be and how it should use its superpower status, in order to strengthen the nation's commitment to a more coherent strategy in the world:〔Bremmer, Ian. (). ''Time'' video. 2015.〕 * Independent America: asserts that it's time for the US to declare independence from international burdens. Instead, Americans should lead by example – in part, by improving the country from within and tapping into its own latent potential. * Moneyball America: acknowledges that Washington can't meet every international challenge. The priority must be to focus on opportunities and to defend US interests where they're threatened. Without imposing its values on anyone, the US should help its allies in ways that make America more secure and prosperous. * Indispensable America: argues that only America can defend the values on which global stability increasingly depends. In today's interdependent, hyper-connected world, a turn inward would undermine America's own security and prosperity. Indispensable America is the most costly option. However, failing to protect US values and basic freedoms across the world presents the greater risk. According to Bremmer, a "superpower" is a country that can exert enough military, political, and economic power to persuade nations in every region of the world to take important actions they wouldn't otherwise take.〔 == Quotes by the author == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Superpower: Three Choices for America's Role in the World」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
