Blowback, a term invented by the CIA, refers to the uninted consequences
of American policies. In this sure-to-be-controversial book, Chalmers
Johnson lays out in vivid detail the dangers faced by our overexted
empire, which insists on projecting its military power to every corner
of the earth and using American capital and markets to force global
economic integration on its own terms. From a case of rape by U.S.
servicemen in Okinawa to our role in Asia's financial crisis, from our
early support for Saddam Hussein to our actions in the Balkans, Johnson
reveals the ways in which our misguided policies are planting the seeds
of future disaster.
In the wake of the Cold War, the United
States has imprudently expanded the commitments it made over the
previous forty years, argues Johnson. In Blowback, he issues a warning
we would do well to consider: it is time for our empire to demobilize
before our bills come due.
