Book excerpt: In The End of Alliances, Menon offers a bold new vision of the future of American--and global--foreign affairs, one that does not include familiar, contractual agreements amongst states. Yet, contrary to prevailing wisdom, Menon argues, a world without US-led alliances will not be marked by American isolationism, a divorce between Europe and America, or total global upheaval. Instead, in place of rigid military pacts, countries will enter into contingent alignments and specific coalitions created for particular ends.
