COVER: NATIONAL INTEREST? Interventionism vs Minding our own Business. Cover illustration by Craig Frazier.

WHAT Is THE NATIONAL INTEREST? The United States, the author believes, should put an end to its meddling around the world, should confine itself to securing certain specific objectives that are intrinsically important, and should focus its attention on rebuilding its economic strength. by ALAN TONELSON.

THE GULF WAR: AN EXCHANGE: Why the Gulf War Served the National Interest American prosecution of the Gulf War was required for three reasons, the author writes: to protect the oil markets, to restore order, and to combat weapons proliferation--vital interests all. The war also offers a timely reminder of the importance of both "hard" and "soft" power. by JOSEPH S. NYE, JR.

Why the Gulf War Was Not in the National Interest. The Gulf War was unnecessary and unwise. It has also set a dangerous precedent--and has perhaps even become a model for future U.S. global strategy. The United States must not adopt that model. by CHRISTOPHER LAYNE.
