GLOBAL POLITICAL MAYHEM
A conversation with Les Gelb, one of the sharpest minds in foreign policy.
The people have spoken! Or have they? The rise of Nativist, Populist and Arab Spring movements around the globe have called many of the world’s traditional political party establishments into question. The successful UK Brexit vote, Germany’s refugee crisis and the upcoming U.S. presidential election have the potential to historically alter the world and U.S. foreign policy.
Join our discussion on the changing political world map with Leslie Gelb. President Emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist, editor and correspondent for the New York Times, former Assistant Secretary of State in the Carter Administration, Pentagon's Director of Policy Planning in the Johnson Administration and recent author of Power Rules: How Common Sense Can Rescue American Policy.
