SUMMARY:Daniel Runde-The American Imperative: Reclaiming Global Leadership
DESCRIPTION:What should our global strategy look like in an age of renewed great power competition? And what must America offer to a newly empowered developing world when we’re no longer the only major player? \nIn The American Imperative\, Washington insider Daniel Runde makes the case for building a new global consensus through vigorous internationalism and the judicious use of soft power. Runde maps out many of the steps that we need to take –– primarily in the non-military sphere –– to ensure an alliance of stable and secure\, like-minded\, self-reliant partner nations in order to prevent rising authoritarian powers such as China from running the world.

SUMMARY:Lucy Kurtzer-Ellenbogen- Israel\, Post Netanyahu
DESCRIPTION:Love him\, hate him\, but you cannot dismiss him. Netanyahu shaped the political and social panorama of Israel forever. A strong unapologetic man of many dimensions that sought world recognition for Israel and often limelight for himself. Twelve years of Netanyahu have come abruptly to an end. Bittersweet for his staunch supporters\, and “about time” for his enemies. He took on Israel’s foes and critics vigorously and deflated accusations like a smooth Teflon pan. But through it all\, he did it his way. \nSo\, what’s in store for Israel post-Netanyahu? It will not be a cakewalk. The problems that plagued the country during Netanyahu’s term are not disappearing overnight. The new government is like a thin sheet of ice\, it will only take a small crack to break. How is Bennet going to move forward? \n

SUMMARY:Chris Preble- The Current State of US Foreign Policy
DESCRIPTION:Has the United States been a force for liberty around the world? Should it be? And if so\, how? To answer these questions\, Christopher A. Preble traces the history of U.S. foreign policy from the American Founding to the present\, examining the ideas that have animated it\, asking whether America’s policy choices have made the world safer and freer\, and considering the impact of those choices on freedom at home. \nPreble will explain the need to question the assumptions that drive American foreign policy in the modern era―especially the assumption that American politicians can and should forcibly remake the international order to suit their desires. He asks readers to consider whether America and the world would be safer and freer if U.S. foreign policy incorporated libertarian insights about the limitations of government power.
