Looks backward more than it looks forward, and even gets some basic facts wrong (like the date of the US invasion of Iraq).... Joseph Nye's timely and informative analysis addresses all the questions one may have asked about the ambiguous term Smart Power and contrasts the various forms of power, whether it is economic power, hard power, or soft power.Smart Power refers to a combination of all the above, with the addition that each is used prudently.
