Total copies: 1
In a completely original analysis, prize-winning historian Alfred W. McCoy explores America's rise as a world power - from the 1890s through the Cold War - and its bid to extend its hegemony deep into the twenty-first century through a fusion of cyberwar, space warfare, trade pacts, and military alliances. McCoy then analyses the marquee instruments of US hegemony - covert intervention, client elites, psychological torture, and worldwide surveillance.
