N1  - Dangerous Nation by Robert Kagan is a bold and thought-provoking examination of America’s early foreign policy and its expansionist ambitions from the country’s founding through the end of the 19th century. Challenging the notion of the United States as an isolationist or reluctant world power, Kagan argues that America was, from its inception, an assertive and ambitious nation driven by ideology, economic interests, and a sense of destiny. Through detailed historical analysis, the book reveals how these early policies laid the groundwork for the country’s later global influence
