ABOUT THE TOPIC - America and the World: Trump 2.0 Foreign Policy
Trump’s return to the Office of President has marked a break from 80 years of U.S. foreign policy leadership, embracing an “America First” approach. This topic explores the risks of isolation and diminished influence in relation to Trump 2.0 foreign policy.
- With Trump 2.0, is America still “the leader of the Free World”?
- In what ways are Trump’s “America First” foreign policies similar to or different from policies of previous administrations?
- What challenges and opportunities do Trump’s “20-point plan” pose for conflict resolution in the Middle East?
Featuring:
Dr. Pierre Atlas, Comparative Political Scientist, Indiana University
