摘要

When things go badly in the U.S. commentators can't resist asking if we're going the way of the Roman Empire. When Washington is assertive in its foreign policy, critics-especially in Europe-accuse us of Roman Empire-like arrogance and overreach. In this well-written book author Smil robustly attacks the whole concept of such comparisons.To begin with the U.S. is still something of a young pup on the world scene, When the city of Rome and its western empire fell in the late 5th century, it had already existed for some 1,000 years. And the eastern portion of the empire, with its capital in Constantinople, went on for another 1,000 years.Contrary to myth, Rome was hardly the biggest empire in history. The British Empire in its heyday, among others, was significantly larger.

机译：当美国局势恶化时，评论员无法抗拒地问我们是否走了罗马帝国的道路。当华盛顿在外交政策上采取果断的态度时，尤其是在欧洲，批评家指责我们像罗马帝国那样傲慢自大。在这本写得很好的书中，史密尔（Smil）大力抨击了这种比较的整个概念。从美国开始，在世界舞台上还是一个年轻的小狗，当罗马市及其西方帝国在5世纪晚期沦陷时，它已经存在了大约1000年。帝国的东部，其首都位于君士坦丁堡，持续了1000年。与神话相反，罗马并不是历史上最大的帝国。大英帝国在鼎盛时期的规模明显更大。
