内容简介：
Acclaimed historian Niall Ferguson ranges across the entire
history of America’s foreign entanglements and delves into all the
dimensions of American power—military, economic, cultural, and
political. The result is a book whose conclusions are as
convincing, and troubling, as they are original. Ferguson
demonstrates that America has always been an empire in denial and
shows the fateful consequences of its special brand of imperialism.
He examines the challenges to the United States from its principal
rivals, the European Union and China, and offers a compelling
analysis of the connection between the country’s domestic economic
health and its foreign affairs—the bottom line of imperialism,
American style. Colossus is a peerless reckoning with
American power that should be read by any thinking citizen of this
unspoken empire.

原文赏析：
欧洲是一个奇怪的联盟，它是一个幻想着成为联邦，却从未成为真正的一个联邦的同盟。它有行政机构、立法机构、一个上议院、一个中央银行、一种共同货币、一面旗帜和一首国歌。但是它只有极小的共同预算和最低配置的共同军队的框架。跟欧盟设计者的初衷不同，更多的决议仍然需要国家政府在欧洲理事会会议和政府间会议上作决定。欧盟没有一个共同的语言、共同的邮政系统、一支共同的足球队，甚至连统一标准的电源插座也没有。
美国既无须害怕欧盟的扩大，也无须担心欧盟的深化——至少因为这两个过程是互相对立的两个过程。一个联邦的欧洲的出现就可以与美国相抗衡的言论是基于对欧盟发展状况的根本误读……综合以上所有这些原因，一个共同的外交和安全政策看起来是那么的遥远，而且可能只是难以企及的雄伟梦想罢了。
期限是国家重建能否成功的关键。美国军事干预最成功的国家恰恰是美国军事存在的持续时间最长得国家，这决不是一个巧合而已。
The United States derives a significant benefit from the status of the dollar as the world’s principal reserve currency; it is one reason why foreign investors are prepared to hold such large volumes of dollar-denominated assets. But reserve-currency status is not divinely ordained. It could be undermined if international markets took fright at the magnitude of America’s still latent fiscal crisis. A decline in the dollar would certainly hurt foreign holders of U.S. currency more than it would hurt Americans. But a shift in international expectations about U.S. finances might also bring about a sharp increase in long-term interest rates, which would have immediate and negative feedback effects on the federal deficit by pushing up the cost of debt service. It would also hurt highly geared A...
The geographical focus of the American empire shifted repeatedly during the twentieth century. At the beginning of the century it had been a hemispheric empire, reaching eastward into the Caribbean, southward into Central America and westward into the Pacific. In the middle of the century it had reluctantly been forced to extend its reach to Europe, and for much of the cold war, the security of Western Europe seemed to matter more than Asia or, indeed, the Caribbean. Gradually, however, the Middle East came to be the hub around which American strategy turned: because of Israel, because of oil, because of terrorism. With the end of the cold war opportunities presented themselves to use America’s reviving military power against one or more of those dangerous states that simultaneously threat...
And the magnitude of the problem is such that most Americans, including those who consider themselves well informed about the nation’s finances, find it quite simply incredible. Indeed, the main reason why America’s fiscal crisis remains latent is precisely that people refuse to believe in its existence. And they are able to do this because the United States has imperceptibly come to rely on East Asian capital to stabilize its unbalanced budgets. Many commentators have noted the very muted, even quiescent reaction of China to recent American military intervention. Fewer have appreciated the extent to which China now helps underwrite American power.
