The New New World Order

Summary --

Controversies over the war in Iraq and U.S. unilateralism have overshadowed a more pragmatic and multilateral component of the Bush administration's grand strategy: its attempt to reconfigure U.S. foreign policy and international institutions in order to account for shifts in the global distribution of power and the emergence of states such as China and India. This unheralded move is well intentioned and well advised, and Washington should redouble its efforts.

New World Order

Submitted by Mero A. (Jul. 9, 2009) on July 9, 2009 - 1:29pm.

When you say "New World Order" this is not democratic system. The reason being the word "Order" is force. Secondly, when I see these people in your group they are not good at all, e.g. Bush group - they have secret plans because they don't expose. I like the idea but I think public would like to see from ground level not like high level people. Also, I see you have done no thing apart from generating power in your structure which is another danger, let me give you an example: you are like a balloon because you have outer structure but public don't know anything. So if some where or something goes wrong then you all are out. "May be you don't know the power of public". Also, it looks to me that you are gathering financial power structure which is more danger because finance is greed so many of you might be get ridden off by these people.
I suggest you both: political and financial leaders to have only one agenda that is to give all power and finance to public and you will be the real winner. I wish you all best of luck...

Interesting that you should post it openly on the website. Lets say that you DO have any general populations best interests in mind, (thats a good one!) this idea is so incredibly tainted as to be useless. So many people have so many opinions on the subject and ill give mine shortly, but know this; the negative press behind the NWO has been building since the 70s. Type in ill into google and illuminati pops up immediately. Look at the hits on Alex Jones' websites! There about a 8 million pissed off people everywhere that are serious about this subject. I know I am. The nice thing is if you all are the nefarious, shadowy organization, you slacked off. Because of the internet I can find out all the reasons I might have given my life in the past are bull@&#$. Nationalism? You dont care about countries. Now I know that the Russians were just as scared of us as we were of them (I can chat with them online). Communism was just a threat to your money. Nice thing about the information age. Much harder to keep secrets. We see you.

A Strategy of Partnerships
Colin L. Powell

Pundits claim that U.S. foreign policy is too focused on unilateral preemption. But George W. Bush's vision -- enshrined in his 2002 National Security Strategy -- is far broader and deeper than that. The president has promoted bold and effective policies to combat terrorism, intervened decisively to prevent regional conflicts, and embraced other major powers such as Russia, China, and India. Above all, he has committed the United States to a strategy of partnerships, which affirms the vital role of international alliances while advancing American interests and principles.

Rebuilding the Atlantic Alliance
Ronald D. Asmus

Despite the myriad setbacks of recent months, the U.S.-European alliance is not doomed. But repairing it will require a strategic overhaul no less bold than that which followed the end of the Cold War. The key to today's transatlantic divide is not power but purpose. To revive and revamp the alliance, therefore, the United States and the European Union must forge a new grand strategy capable of meeting the great challenges of the era: expanding the Euro-Atlantic community and stabilizing the greater Middle East.

Transformational Leadership and U.S. Grand Strategy
Joseph S. Nye, Jr.

George W. Bush wants to be remembered as a president who left a lasting mark on U.S. foreign policy. His emphasis on spreading democracy and reshaping the Middle East is a manifestation of this drive. But the results of his management style and policy choices -- especially the invasion of Iraq -- may have already denied him that legacy.

The Dollar and the Deficits
C. Fred Bergsten

The global economic crisis has revealed the folly of large U.S. budget and trade deficits, as well as of the strong dollar that makes them possible. If it is serious about recovery, the United States must balance the budget, stimulate private saving, and embrace a declining dollar.
