"In recent memory, nothing could be done without the US. Today, however, 
practically all new 
international institution-building of any long-term importance in global 
diplomacy and trade 
occurs without American participation."

"Today the evidence of foreign co-operation to reduce American primacy is 
everywhere -- from 
the increasing importance of regional trade blocs that exclude the US to 
international space 
projects and military exercises in which the US is conspicuous by its absence."

Article by Michael Lind, senior fellow at the New America Foundation in 
Washington, DC.
