The United States faces a world of challenges, dangers, and uncertainties. With conflict and disorder becoming an ever more prevalent component of global politics, we are left with many questions. Questions such as: What is America’s role on the global stage? What are the decisions, risks, and opportunities that lie ahead in an increasingly tumultuous international landscape? And how can American foreign policy adapt to the new challenges that the world faces? The answers to these questions could shape American foreign policy and the global order for decades to come.

Join us for a timely discussion of this topic with Michael Poznansky, Professor and Author on International Relations. This program will feature an expert presentation, live audience Q&A, and time for networking and discussion with other globally-oriented participants.
