Vandenberg Coalition advisory board member Daniel F. Runde joined us to discuss his new book, The American Imperative: Reclaiming Global Leadership Through Soft Power. What 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? Foreign policy expert Daniel Runde makes the case for renewed American engagement in the developing world for our own prosperity and security, but also because foreign assistance and other forms of soft power are largely where this competition is going to be contested.
