Since the terrorist atrocities in New York and Washington on September 11th 2001 and the subsequent "War on Terrorism", the question of American foreign policy has become more vital than ever. Here, Henry Kissinger explains why a new, coherent foreign policy is urgently needed and what the goals of this policy should be. Dr Kissinger covers the wide range of problems facing the United States at the beginning a new millennium and a new presidency, paying particular interest to the various "hot-spots" around the world.
