Abstract:
Whatever the merits of how America pursues the Global War on Terror, America is also paying dearly for it in terms of human casualties as well as money spent on it and not other priorities. These costs, of course, are both obvious and immediate. But are there other costs that may only become apparent over the long-term? A recent article by Ruksana Kibria, a distinguished professor of international relations at Dhaka University in Bangladesh, suggests not only that these costs exist, but also what they might be.
