Annotation Summary:

Currently American and Western foreign policy are focused on the MiddleEastern and Chinese "hot spots." In early 2012, the UnitedStates pivoted to make the Far East its military and strategic firstpriority, thereby downgrading the Middle East. Amitai Etzioni arguesthat such pivoting towards the Far East is premature and may be flawed.China can, and should be treated as a potential partner in a changingglobal order, rather than contained and made into an enemy. At the sametime, he argues, the true hot spots continue to be in the Middle East,in Iran and Pakistan. Etzioni examines policies that threaten and favorthe promotion of human rights.
