Ferguson Niall : Colossus, The Rise and Fall of the American Empire (English)

Ferguson Niall : Colossus, The Rise and Fall of the American Empire (English)
Presidents from Woodrow Wilson to George W. Bush may have denied it but, as Niall Ferguson's brilliant and provocative book shows, the US is in many ways the greatest imperial power of all time. What's more, it always has been an empire, expanding westwards throughout the nineteenth century and rising to global dominance in the twentieth. But is today's American colossus really equipped to play Atlas, bearing the weight of the world on its shoulders? The US, Ferguson reveals, is an empire running on empty, weakened by chronic deficits of money, manpower and political will. When the New Rome falls, he warns, its collapse may well come from within.
