Liberty's Best Hope: American Leadership for the 21st Century

Liberty's Best Hope challenges America to reclaim its role as a global leader and purveyor of freedom. Dr. Holmes examines not only threats we face throughout the world, but the ideological battles being waged on the home front — and he offers practical solutions for policymakers. He surveys the perspectives, ambitions and behavior of our allies and our enemies and who truly belongs in each camp — and outlines a concrete plan for America s next president to strengthen and reshape our role abroad. President Reagan, he notes, understood that America s emergence as a world leader for freedom, peace and democracy presents us with a moral imperative to act — not react. Only by asserting America s leadership on the global stage, Dr. Holmes argues in Liberty s Best Hope, can freedom hope to live on.
