After Iraq: War, Imperialism and Democracy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781552661321)

This examination of the United States-led war in Iraq presents the war as a geopolitical watershed moment in which the U.S. s unilateralism presents stark challenges to international law, multilateralism, and the United Nations. A historical overview of Iraq s colonial history and Saddam Hussein s brutal rise to power accompanies a discussion of the worldwide military expansion following the election of George W. Bush as U.S. president. This comprehensive analysis provides an introduction to political science concepts and presents a hopeful perspective on the global situation that calls for concerted activism to challenge a U.S.-dominated new world order.
