About this Event
The United States has been involved in numerous high-profile conflicts in the 21st century, demonstrating an over-reliance on military power as the foremost tool of U.S. foreign policy. What receives less attention are the U.S. diplomatic interventions that prevent conflicts from occurring or escalating into larger wars. This event will explore these under-appreciated successes of U.S. diplomacy. How do U.S. diplomats work with other elements of the U.S. government and foreign partners to achieve these agreements? What are the circumstances that make conflict prevention through diplomacy possible?
Join us for a conversation about instances when the United States has successfully used diplomacy to prevent conflicts and quell escalation, and the lessons those stories hold.
