The answer is NO -- America's post-war danger lies towards Isolationism rather than Imperialism. This is a challenge to America to accept the leading part in insuring the world that imperialism as known before is dead. He presents his blueprint for a League with teeth. He suggests the step by step process of shifting reoccupied colonial territories from their former status to self-determination and independence, economically, culturally, politically if they wish, under a wise mandate. He writes of the Near East (and minorities problems), of the Far East, of Russia, of America's part in the peace.
