  • Essay / An Overview of American Security Post-9/11

    IntroductionBrown argues that the increased use and presence of American military forces has implicated American diplomacy as a whole. I agree with Brown's assessments that U.S. officials are counting on their influence to counter a wide range of threats to America's global interests; overshadowing previous strategies that limited the use of military force to situations in which the country's vital interests were at stake. This is clearly evident even before September 11, 2001, which showed signs of major interference in the future. While some may say that the presence of these forces is one of the reliable ways to establish control over a disordered world, the evidence has shown us otherwise, which supports Brown's argument about the "dangerous illusion" . as the only “full-service” superpower, we must ask whether this capability has already been fully realized? When U.S. President George W. Bush came to power, he adopted a unipolar approach to defending American interests in foreign affairs. This was clearly evident when President Bush chose to use American military force after the September 11 attacks to eliminate perceived threats and promote American ideas throughout the world "based on four themes: a celebration of superiority physics of America; a quasi-religious belief in the universality of American values ​​and priorities; confidence in Washington's ability to translate its material resources into expected results; and a sense of threat, sufficient to justify institutional adjustment at home and preventive action abroad. .... middle of paper ......lack of discussion.
