SUMMARY:Luncheon | Daniel Runde | American Global Leadership | Oct 3
DESCRIPTION:“We’re at a moment in this period of great power competition\, whether or not you want to call it a second Cold War\, where the national security imperatives of dealing with a resurgent China and a disruptor in Russia require us to go back to the drawing board on our soft power instruments to respond to this new challenge.” — Daniel F.

\nBusiness Luncheon | Daniel Runde: Restoring American Global Leadership | Oct 3\n \n \nAbout the Book \nIt’s time for America to get back in the international leadership game. \nWhat 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\, international development expert 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. \n\n\nAbout Daniel F.
