Trump 2.0 and America's Role in the World

Almost a year after the geopolitical shock of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, the contours of President Trump’s grand strategy are coming into sharper focus. In this event, Peter Feaver, a member of the National Security Council in the Clinton and Bush administrations, will discuss how the new policy directions have changed the domestic politics of national security and assess how the second Trump administration has remade America’s role in the world.

Peter Feaver served as Special Advisor for Strategic Planning and Institutional Reform on the National Security Council Staff in the Bush administration, and as Director for Defense Policy and Arms Control on the National Security Council in the Clinton administration. He is a Professor of Political Science and Public Policy at Duke University, and the author of numerous academic articles and books on U.S. Grand Strategy and Foreign Policy.
