National Security in the
Age of Transformation
The United States is undergoing a major transformation in national security
and foreign policy in response to developments at home and abroad. The
current domestic political environment is driving a reassessment and
realignment of America’s role in the world.
The post-WWII institutions the United States built to ensure relative peace in
the world, Pax Americana, and the multilateral, rules-based order that
benefited America’s economic and political aims are under fire. Meanwhile
rising powers, regional crises, perennial wars and existential challenges –
nuclear proliferation and climate – confront our foreign policymaking
establishment.
Our objective discussions will put national security and foreign policy issues
in context while seeking to understand the path ahead for America in the
world, especially as citizens grapple with Election 2020 decisions.
