The volume revels "America's War" as an international event that reverberated all over the world: in domestic settings of numerous nation-states, combatants and noncombatants alike, as well as in transnational relations and alliance systems. The volume thereby covers a wide geographical range - from Berkely and Berlinto Cambodia and Canberra. [In the book], 'America's War' is thus depicted as a truly global event whose origins and characteristics deserve an interdisciplinary treatment.
