After WWII, U.S. leaders sought to create liberal rule-of-law regimes in Germany and Japan, but the effort was often unsuccessful. Kostal argues that the manifest failings of Americäs own rule-of-law democracy were partially to blame, weakening U.S. credibility and resolve and revealing the country¿s ambiguous status as a global moral authority.
