Waking Up From An American Dream

The book examines how the Trump administration redefined American global engagement through the "America First" doctrine. Key topics include:Military Strategy: The transition from a policy of deterrence to one of "attack prevention" and the use of coercive diplomacy to influence other nations.Immigration and Security: A detailed look at the executive orders banning citizens from specific countries (such as Iran, Syria, and Yemen) and the "merit-based" restructuring of the U.S. immigration system.Opposition Relations: U.S. interactions and foreign policy stances toward countries identified as opposing the world order, including Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, and Syria.The "American Dream": How these radical policy shifts have altered the global identity of the U.S. and impacted those who once aspired to its ideals.
