Synopsis
Right now there is no coherent plan that addresses questions like: If terrorists were to strike Chicago tomorrow, what would the US government do? When Chicago is burning, whom would they target? How would they respond? There is nothing in place and no strategy on the horizon to either reassure the American public or warn the world: attack the U.S., and this is what you can expect. There has also never been a plan that says: respect the sovereignty of the U.S. and they will respect yours. There are two tracks to the strategy presented in this book, strengthening state responsibility abroad, and strengthening the social fabric in the US. Because no one considers the state of the social fabric in light of the U.S.s foreign policy, or foreign policy in light of what we might all agree America should stand for, this book is unique. The goal? To provoke a serious national security debate that addresses and then redresses the gaps and disconnects between what the U.S. says, what the U.S. does, how the U.S. wants to be perceived, and how the U.S. actually is perceived. We offer a radically commonsensical way to recalibrate global security by getting countries to self-police.

Duane Lauchengco: The busy life of a Special Forces Officer in today’s Army parallels the equally busy life of a father with a bristling brood of four children and a very understanding wife. At home in a Cub Scout meeting, watching kids’ soccer, or treading water, Duane contentedly enjoys North Carolina living

The Sovereignty Solution: A Common Sense Approach to Global Security
Seller: Galisteo Consulting Group Books, Albuquerque, NM, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Used - like new Ships from the USA. The Sovereignty Solution is not an Establishment national security strategy. Instead, it describes what the U.S. could actually do to restore order to the world without having to engage in either global policing or nation-building. Right now there is no coherent plan that addresses questions like: If terrorists were to strike Chicago tomorrow, what would we do? When Chicago is burning, whom would we target? How would we respond? There is nothing in place and no strategy on the horizon to either reassure the American public or warn the world: attack us, and this is what you can expect. We've also never had a plan that says: respect our sovereignty and we'll respect yours. There are two tracks to the strategy presented in this book: strengthening state responsibility abroad, and strengthening the social fabric here at home. Because no one considers the state of our social fabric in light of our foreign policy, or our foreign policy in light of what we might all agree America should stand for, this book is unique. Our goal? To provoke a serious national security debate that addresses and then redresses the gaps and disconnects between what the U.S. says, what the U.S. does, how the U.S. wants to be perceived, and how the U.S. actually is perceived. We offer a radically commonsensical way to recalibrate global security by getting countries to self-police. Seller Inventory # B106_39_5
