There are those among my circles who have been lamenting the decline of America’s “moral authority and power” but until now I have only had anecdotal evidence to validate this claim. This morning the Financial Times published an article titled “US suffers decline in prestige”. The article is reporting on the 2007 Strategic Survey by the non-partisan International Institute for Strategic Studies.
The article leads off “The US has suffered a significant loss of power and prestige around the world....” It’s a short article and one I think we should all read as we prepare for the 2008 election.
The survey is available only to members or for those who purchase individual copies but the reader can download an executive summary.
