Second Annual Betty Lou Hummel Memorial Lecture
with
Professor Joseph Nye
on
"The Future of the American World Order?"
Please join The Foreign Policy Institute at SAIS on Wednesday, March 1 for its Second Annual Betty Lou Hummel Memorial Lecture, featuring Professor Joseph Nye, on "The Future of the American World Order?"
For the past 70 years, the American liberal international order has helped to provide global public goods. Now, some see that order in decline because of the power of a rising China. Others see it challenged by changes within American domestic politics. What is its future?!
From 1977-79, Nye was a deputy Undersecretary of State and chaired the National Security Council Group on Nonproliferation of Nuclear Weapons. In 1993-94 he chaired the National Intelligence Council which prepares intelligence estimates for the president, and in 1994-95 served as Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs. He won Distinguished Service medals from all three agencies.
Nye has published fourteen academic books, a novel, and more than 150 articles in professional and policy journals. Recent books include Soft Power, The Powers to Lead, The Future of Power, and Is the American Century Over?
He is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the British Academy, the American Academy of Diplomacy, and an honorary fellow of Exeter College, Oxford. He is the recipient of Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson Award, the Charles Merriam Award from the American Political Science Association, France’s Palmes Academiques, and various honorary degrees.
