Summary: THE FIRST glimmerings of this study came during the Vietnam War, when, as a student, I attempted to comprehend the choice of an imperial role and the opposition that it inspired, at home and abroad. By the time that I began the first version of this study, my interest had been transformed into a concern with societies that lose their empires and are forced to adjust their self-images and their domestic politics.
