There is enough capacity and motivation out in the world to increase significantly the costs of any U.S. effort to manage global politics directly.

The Defense Strategy Review Page provides free and open access to a broad spectrum of analyses, background studies, official documents, news/analysis briefs and commentaries essential to understanding the formulation of U.S. national security strategy and military policies...and the possibilities for reform and change.
