Abstract

If the task of a politician is to do what is necessary, the new international strategy proposed by President Nixon is the right one; but it is not so if politics is the art of the possible. Everyone knows how the United States got into that situation but there is no unanimity when one asks why they were involved in it. President Nixon has been mandated to end an era of globalism in American foreign policy. But the chances of him fulfilling this mandate will be reduced to the extent that this policy is founded on nature and, in a very broad sense, on the needs of the economic and social system of his country.
