International Perspectives on U.S. Unilateralism and Multilateralism
(working title)

edited by David Malone and Yuen Foong Khong (Boulder, Colorado, Lynne Rienner Publishers: 2002)

What has been the perception abroad of the balance between unilateralism and multilateralism in U.S. foreign policy? How have other countries responded to perceived U.S. "unilateralism" in different regions and issue areas of world politics? What implications do these perceptions and reactions have for U.S. global leadership and the future of international cooperation? A distinguished group of international observers answers these questions in a new book to be published in spring 2002. The volume - to be edited by David Malone (Canada), President of the International Peace Academy, and Yuen Foong Khong (Malaysia), John G. Winant University Lecturer in American Foreign Policy at Oxford University - injects global perspectives into today's self-contained debate about the future of U.S. global engagement.
