Summary:
Statecraft is about marrying objectives and means in foreign policy. It sounds simple, but - as America has learned in recent times - failure is all too frequent. In a newly multipolar world where the US is no longer dominant, America no longer has the luxury of getting it wrong, and its international leadership will be unsustainable if it fails to effectively use all the tools in its statecraft toolkit. In 'Statecraft 2.0', Dennis Ross updates and dramatically expands his classic work, applying its lessons to the challenges American foreign policymakers face today, from China to Russia to Iran.
