Description: "This book addresses the core question of why America needs the G8. It offers new perspectives on the Group of Eight major market democracies, quite different than the prevailing ones which see the G8 either as a forum for partners to bind a unilateralist, hegemonic America, or for American-centred financial and corporate interests to impose a world order in their interest on the world. In contrast, this work suggests that a now vulnerable America might need the G8 as a central instrument of foreign policy to achieve its security, economic and political interests in the world, and shape the 21st century global order it wants."--Jacket.
