Product Description
Change need not be drastic in order to avert calamities, correct mistakes or bring noticeable improvements in a situation. Often, a fairly minor policy change, based on a fresh, critical look at the facts and options, will suffice. A critical second look at what we are doing must be taken to seek opportunities to do better, and act on them if we are to cope more successfully with our rapidly changing world. Look Again is a collection of articles, speeches and other commentaries that illustrate where and how we can make a difference. Dealing almost entirely with foreign policy, on topics ranging from microenterprises to U. N. reform, it includes forecasts of South African negotiations, Cambodian realignments and the possible resurrection of communism. Several deal with Taiwan, mainly as a set of resources insufficiently tapped by the international community. Written to provoke serious thinking about important issues confronting us, this book will also provoke serious thinking about what we are doing or can do to make a difference.
