Islamic Fundamentalism: Threat or Bogeyman?
Abstract
The changing world order has left America with more questions than answers. In addition to a host of challenging and complex domestic problems, the country faces momentous questions about the future course of national security strategy and foreign policy. This new challenge also has serious implications for defense planners and policymakers. "Maintaining global stability" and "making the world safe for democracy" are noble concepts, but they alone can no longer be cashed in for defense dollars in today's relatively benign international environment. Tomorrow's threats will be non-traditional ones, and determining where they will come from has become a major headache for planners and a nightmare for budgeteers.
