Popis: The cold war grand strategy of the United States—containment—became outmoded with the demise of the Soviet Union and the collapse of the Warsaw Pact. This article is a description and review of three U.S. post‐cold war grand strategy options, as articulated by different prominent members of the U.S. defense and foreign policy community. The three options—noninterventionism, unipolarism, and multilateralism—capture virtually all of the various proposals for a new grand strategy as currently discussed in official and unofficial circles in Washington. Each option is presented in terms of a common framework that examines its conceptualization of the international system, characterization of security interests, evaluation of strategic assets, and specification of a strategic approach.
