Full Description
In his prophetic book Blowback, Chalmers Johnson linked the CIA's clandestine activities abroad to disaster for America. In The Sorrows of Empire, he explored the ways in which the growth of American militarism and the garrisoning of the planet have jeopardized US stability. Now, in Nemesis, he shows how imperial overstretch is undermining the American republic itself, both economically and politically.Nemesis offers a striking description of the trap into which the dreams of America's leaders have taken both Americans and the rest of the world. Drawing comparisons to empires past, Johnson explores in vivid detail just what the unintended consequences of US dependence on a permanent war economy are likely to be.
