摘要：

If America's current global predominance does not constitute unipolarity, then nothing ever will. And despite what many have argued, no serious attempts by others to balance U.S. power are likely for the foreseeable future. The sources of American strength are so varied and so durable that the country now enjoys more freedom in its foreign policy choices that has any other power in modern history. But just because the United States can bully others does not mean it should. If it wants to be loves as well as feared, the policy answers are not difficult to find.
