Abstract

This chapter assesses the various obstacles impeding the expansion of the American Century from early 1961 through 1964. Numerous problems, including Laos, Berlin, the Cuban missile crisis, and Vietnam brought into question John F. Kennedy’s leadership. His response too often minimized consultation with allies and, across the Third World, increasingly focused on security and stability through civic action programs, overseen by the Office of Public Safety in the Agency for International Development—to the great detriment, for example, of experiments like the Alliance for Progress. Meanwhile, the rise of multinational corporations and deficit-induced flight of gold thwarted Kennedy’s and Lyndon Johnson’s economic policies, while weakening America’s hegemony and credibility.

轴承负担
本章评估了从1961年初到1964年阻碍美国世纪扩张的各种障碍。包括老挝、柏林、古巴导弹危机和越南在内的许多问题都使约翰·f·肯尼迪的领导能力受到质疑。他的反应往往是尽量减少与盟友的磋商,并且在整个第三世界,越来越多地关注通过公民行动项目来实现安全和稳定,这些项目由国际开发署公共安全办公室监督,这对诸如进步联盟这样的实验造成了极大的损害。与此同时,跨国公司的崛起和赤字导致的黄金外逃挫败了肯尼迪和林登约翰逊的经济政策,同时削弱了美国的霸权和信誉。
