America's Global Influence

Your readers are presented with essays of opposing viewpoints on how America has used its influence to achieve a global position through a mix of hard power and soft power. Across four chapters, readers will evaluate criticisms of America's global influence, if U.S. Military intervention is good, whether U.S. economic policies are a good use of influence, and what the global impact is of American culture. Essay sources include the Pew Research Center, The Economist, Andrew C. McCarthy, Carlos Pascual, and Stephen John Stedman.
