Amidst increasing global volatility, Americans are spiritedly debating how they want their country to engage with the world around them. Historically, America’s closest allies are fellow democracies, and its greatest rivals are authoritarian dictatorships like China and Russia. Do democratic values advantage America and its allies in today’s geopolitical competition?
On October 22, join @IRIglobal President @DCTwining and @NDI President Tamara Cofman Wittes in conversation with Council President and CEO @londonvinjamuri for a discussion of how the US can tackle the challenges posed by authoritarian rivals and maintain the support of the American people in doing so.
