GOLDEN PERIOD END AS

United States now faces the biggest challenge out there as a large debt-ridden country, damage to infrastructure and economic decline. America should not be stuck in the past, but until the end of the era of the United States as an international re-balance the load, and the full attention of the critical issues and opportunities.
United States since 1945 has been a big country in the world, US leaders have always tried to maintain their status. United States always limit the area of ​​power and great power competition of other countries in the form of a balance.
World War II ended, the era of "America" ​​begins. In 1947, the Office of the US State Department has announced: "every command should be the goal of US policy." For example, in 1945, the US economy has become a major creditor of the trade surplus. The United States also has naval and air forces of the most powerful in the world, its industrial base is unmatched, the United States is a country with nuclear weapons, and has many military bases scattered around the world.

Washington strongly supported decolonization and the reconstruction of Europe through the Marshall Plan, the country's most developed and developing are the United States has a lot of balance.
The United States also has a very significant geopolitical advantage. In the Western hemisphere, there are no other major economies, the United States does not have to worry about the presence of foreign invasion. US rivals only the Soviet economy which is much smaller and very low efficiency. Military forces especially the Army is impossible to balance the United States. Shortly before the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States as a whole has established a dominant position in modern history.
The US has a tremendous advantage after a decade of World War II, the United States in almost all regions have set up and lead a political order, security and the new economy. United States for several decades also established several institutions, such as the UN, World Bank, IMF, GATT in maintaining its influence in the world. Indeed, the United States does not fully control what happens on every continent, such as failing to stop the Cuban revolution in 1959 and the Iranian revolution in 1979. The US also failed to prevent France from the integrated command of NATO military in 1966, failed to prevent Israel, India, Korea and Pakistan has nuclear weapons. However, in all areas of the United States still retains enormous influence, especially in some big trouble.
In addition, although the status of the United States kadan sometimes challenged - the defeat in Vietnam is the most obvious example-but the position k e s e l u r u h a n of the United States never became a n c a m a n serious. With a population of only 5% of the countries in the world but the United States can regulate the political, economic and security, as well as maintaining world order is very remarkable.
The collapse of the Soviet Union made the United States became the world's superpower. Former US national security adviser Brent Scowcroft said the United States find themselves "stand alone at the pinnacle of power." This situation is unique in history, giving the United States a very rare opportunity to reshape the new world order.
The United States also succeeded in persuading the countries of the Warsaw Pact's entry into NATO and the countries of the former communist fraction to encourage the adoption of market economy and democratic institutions. That's the brilliance of peak current American era, but fireworks to celebrate the victory has covered our eyes and being the end of a trend and a trap set by the US.
In the last 20 years, some key areas have emerged a new power. The most obvious example is China. The explosive growth of the Chinese economy is undoubtedly in the geo-political advancement of the most important in each decade. Around 1900, the United States has become the largest economy in the world. However, China will likely be able to surpass the United States in the total economy in 2025.
Some of the security protocol as a characteristic of the United States has been weakened due to the emergence of some of the important reasons of regional powers, particularly India, Turkey and Brazil. More recently, the G8 has been extended to the so-called Group of Twenty, which can be seen in the gradual spread of power. It also shows subtly that the creation of global institutions are increasingly obsolete in World War II, the more the need for reform.
The emergence of new forces is final "unipolar moment" short-lived, the result is the US experienced a confrontation. United States may still be the most powerful country, but the overall leadership position has mele
