The coronavirus pandemic may well be the most significant global event since the end of the Second World War, but strikingly, it is unlikely to reshape the current global order. Emerging from the pandemic, the United States will still face a multipolar international environment driven by powers determined to protect their own interests and spheres of influence; intractable conflicts; and great power competition. Washington, regardless of the outcome of the U.S. presidential election, will be forced to reckon with the consequences of American retrenchment on the world stage.
Join Michèle Flournoy, Jake Sullivan, Stephen Walt, and Aaron David Miller for a conversation on the future of U.S. foreign policy. Can America lead in this cruel and complicated world? How should it deploy its power and toward what ends? And how will the galactic challenges of domestic recovery influence America’s ability to play an influential global role.
