The United States of late seems to resemble a modern-day Gulliver—possessing tremendous strength yet increasingly challenged by powers large and small who oppose its interests and aims. The United States seems to lack a clear and realistic vision about its role in the world and a strategy for how best to advance its interests. Indeed, recent policy missteps have undermined America’s traditional allies and partners and delighted its adversaries. Can America still lead effectively? And what are the core elements of a sound foreign policy and national security strategy?
Join Aaron David Miller as he engages Jake Sullivan, Kissinger Professor of the Practice of Statecraft and World Order at the Harvard Kennedy School and former National Security Adviser to President Joe Biden, in a wide-ranging conversation on the challenges the United States confronts in a complicated world, on the next Carnegie Connects.
