A harrowing exploration of the collapse of American diplomacy and the abdication of global leadership, by the winner of the 2018 Pulitzer Prize in Public Service.
US foreign policy is undergoing a dire transformation, forever changing America’s place in the world. Institutions of diplomacy and development are bleeding out after deep budget cuts; the diplomats who make America’s deals and protect its citizens around the world are walking out in droves. Offices across the State Department sit empty, while abroad the military-industrial complex has assumed the work once undertaken by peacemakers. We’re becoming a nation that shoots first and asks questions later.
In an astonishing journey from the corridors of power in Washington, DC, to some of the most remote and dangerous places on earth―Afghanistan, Somalia, and North Korea among them―acclaimed investigative journalist Ronan Farrow illuminates one of the most consequential and poorly understood changes in American history. His firsthand experience as a former State Department official affords a personal look at some of the last standard bearers of traditional statecraft, including Richard Holbrooke, who made peace in Bosnia and died while trying to do so in Afghanistan.
Drawing on newly unearthed documents, and richly informed by rare interviews with warlords, whistle-blowers, and policymakers―including every living former secretary of state from Henry Kissinger to Hillary Clinton to Rex Tillerson―War on Peace makes a powerful case for an endangered profession. Diplomacy, Farrow argues, has declined after decades of political cowardice, shortsightedness, and outright malice―but it may just offer America a way out of a world at war.
Ronan Farrow is an investigative journalist who writes for The New Yorker and makes documentaries for HBO. He has been an anchor and reporter at MSNBC and NBC News, and his writing has appeared in publications including The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post. He is a winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the George Polk Award, and the National Magazine Award, among other commendations, and has been named one of Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People. He is also an attorney and former State Department official. He lives in New York City.
看這本書最大的收獲是Ronan和Jon Lovett竟然是couple 是我的錯
評分我一直覺得 美國藥丸 不是說說而已 是真的覺得美國是紙老虎 練蘇聯都玩不過 那種做好本職工作卻無法左右輿論的無力感 信仰的喪失感 也是PhD階段的真實感受
評分花瞭快一年聽完,沒辦法,Ronan讀得太有lecturer/reporter感。這基本上是個現狀得剖析,the State Department的式微和軍隊的強勢。其實現在還要加一層白宮對intelligence部門的高度不信任。我覺得這本書有長篇專欄感而不是書的感覺。
評分Ronan Farrow 有著同齡人無法企及的成就和閱曆。他的父親是伍迪艾倫,母親是米亞法羅;他揭露瞭 Harvey Weinstein 震驚世界的性醜聞;他采訪過很多世界上最具影響力的政治傢甚至是軍閥。他說為瞭寫這本書,他采訪瞭美國所有尚在人世的國務卿——包括基辛格。他在書裏詳細記錄瞭美國外交政策的全麵軍事化,以及國務院的衰落,字裏行間都是擔憂。非常開眼界,從中東到東亞到拉美。唯一不足就是缺乏他自己的思考在裏麵。美國外交日漸衰落,應該怎麼挽救?他沒有提。換句話講,這本書叫做“見聞錄”或者“訪談錄”更為閤適。
評分作者是編碼+傳話筒的角色.反正這種話題龐大無邊際誰都能嘮嗑兩句的...知道這個名字是因為RF一營業..Joi Ito失業啦..佩服的很!一個油膩東亞男完全沒有纔華和能力做事情的..浪費瞭無數資源搞些莫名其妙無根基的項目來aggrandize his ego.不知道ML留著他到底是為什麼..他是個官迷眼裏隻有名利的..和清華syg北大ry一個模子刻齣來裏的啦...爭院士爭經費爭媒體贊美..年輕人傻韭菜崇拜的不得瞭..很同情年輕學生和做研究的學者..一腔熱情來到波屯..結果灌瞭一腦子的水..被日本馬雲惡心瞭一把....這世道..哈哈
其实我一向的原则是英文书用英文来评,但是这本书让我很情绪化,觉得不用中文解决不了问题。 我一直是资深的美黑。但是我美黑的地步,顶多也就是“虽然讨厌这个国家,但如果以后就业机会多,恐怕还是要待在这里吧”。看完这本书的感觉就是“这国家吃枣药丸,以后如果待在这里,...
評分作者以近代一些外交官和国务卿的经历来展现一个美国外交官衰落的趋势,包括霍尔布鲁克、拉斐尔、蒂勒森,甚至作者本人。作者以自己的亲身经历和见闻,见证了反恐战争导致了外交由职业外交官向军方的转移。然而作者没有意识到这个趋势可上溯至二战后就已经开始出现,一方面最高...
