This original collection offers hope to those who believe that the cause of world peace requires a new American foreign policy and repairing our depleted military. The twelve contributors to this book show why America must take another look at our possible adversaries and real strategic partners. Present Dangers offers practical strategies for policymakers eager to disarm adversaries like North Korea and Iraq and head off the terrorist threat. Intellectuals, historians and policy-makers such as Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Donald Kagan, James Caesar, and William Bennett all challenge America to make sure that foreign affairs, a sleeping issue for the last eight years, gets a wake-up call in election year 2000.

Robert Kagan of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and William Kristol of the Weekly Standard are editors of this volume. Contributor Richard Perle is a resident fellow at AEI.
