| 520 | |a "In the late 1970s, the United States often seemed to be a superpower in decline. Battered by crises and setbacks around the globe, its post- orld War II international leadership appeared to be draining steadily away. Yet just over a decade later, by the early 1990s, America's global primacy had been reasserted in dramatic fashion.

Brands reveals how deep structural changes in the international system interacted with strategies pursued by Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, and George H.W.
