Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. CD4-A hardcover book SIGNED and inscribed by Rick Barton to previous owner on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket. Dust jacket has small tear on the back top left corner, some wrinkling, chipping and crease on the edges and corners, dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. BOSNIA, RWANDA, HAITI, AFGHANISTAN, IRAQ, and Syria-a quarter-century of stumbles in America's pursuit of a more peaceful and just world. American military interventions have cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars, yet we rarely manage to enact positive and sustainable change. In Peace Works: America's Unifying Role in a Turbulent World, ambassador and global conflict leader Rick Barton uses a mix of stories, history, and analysis for a transformative approach to foreign affairs and offers concrete and attainable solutions for the future. Drawing on his years as a diplomat, scholar, and senior U.S. and U.N. official, Barton grapples with America's inability to capitalize on its strategic advantages to defuse international conflicts. Guided by the need for tangible results, Barton offers an insightful analysis of interventions from the Balkan Wars of the 1990s until today. He insists that the United States must maintain a focus on people and outlines a few key directives: remain transparent with the American public, act as a catalyzing (not colonizing! ) force, engage local partners, and measure results. This book humanizes distant stories of foreign crises and makes desperate situations addressable. A more peaceful world will require U.S. improvement, and Barton shows how that is both possible and necessary. At a time of great confusion in America, this book offers a clear and practical way forward. 9.25"x6.25", 283 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Frederick "Rick" Barton is a United States diplomat, educator, and author. He served as the founding Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations at the U.S. Department of State until September 2014. Currently a lecturer at Princeton University's School of Public and International Affairs, he is also the co-director of the university's Scholars in the Nation's Service Initiative (SINSI) with his wife, Kit Lunney.
