The U.S. is facing multiple security challenges across the globe, from instability in the heart of Europe to unsettled conflicts across the Middle East to the growing challenge posed by China. Other national security challenges on the homefront include an unsustainable level of debt, political divisions, and the consequence of the outsourcing of some essential supply chains. This four-week course will consider those challenges, offer a range of possible solutions and judge the way that the current administration is managing those challenges. The goal is to provoke a lively exchange of ideas in a seminar format. Space is limited to allow for discussion.
LECTURES:
- Meeting the Russia-China Challenge.
- Ending the Wars and Preserving a Durable Peace in the Middle East.
- Engaging the Global South: Addressing the Opportunities and Challenges in Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia.
- On the Homefront: Restoring Checks and Balances, Addressing the Debt and Other Economic Challenges.
