In the Shadows of the American Century: The Rise and Decline

In the Shadows of the American Century: The Rise and Decline of US Global Power (Dispatch Books)

In a completely original analysis, McCoy explores Americaâ€™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 analyzes the marquee instruments of American hegemonyâ€”covert intervention, client elites, psychological torture, and worldwide surveillance.
Alfred W. McCoyâ€™s 2009 book Policing Americaâ€™s Empire won the Kahin Prize from the Association for Asian Studies.
