Trump and the Future of American Power
March 26, 2018
Speaker
Hosted by The Hellenic Observatory

Is the United States in retreat? Should Donald Trump’s approach to foreign policy be viewed as an aberration or as the “new normal” in American foreign policy? In this lecture, Professor Trubowitz will argue that Trump’s foreign policy is symptomatic of a mounting popular backlash in the United States against long-standing liberal internationalist policies and practices. He will discuss the roots of this backlash and consider its implications for the future of American power and the liberal international order.
