An "elegant and courageous" analysis of why more than half
of the world's population is becoming increasingly alienated
from America (Washington Post Book World) In Beyond the Age of Innocence Kishore Mahbubani, a leading
Asian diplomat, reveals to us the America that Asia and the
rest of the world see. We are a country that has given hope
to billions by creating a society where destiny is not
determined at birth. But we have become indifferent to the
consequences of our decisions on others. Global financial
institutions have been used to advance American interests,
not global interests. America has been imprudent in its
policy toward two large masses of mankind: the Chinese and
Muslim populations. To allow any lasting gap between America and the world,
Mahbubani argues, would be a colossal strategic mistake for
America and a huge loss to the world. But there is still
time for the U.S. to change course, and in this
thought-provoking and visionary book Mahbubani shows us how.
