Earlier in his career, he worked as a political consultant and as a reporter for The New York Times. Moderated by SHERLE SCHWENNINGER, Senior Fellow at the World Policy Institute at the New School University and Director of the Global Economic Policy Program at the New America Foundation The Bush administration’s national security strategy, with its emphasis on preventive war and American military dominance, has proven counter-productive in dealing with the main threats the United States faces. A recent Center for American Progress report argues for an alternative approach, based on the notion that the United States can best protect the American people and advance its interests by adopting a new national security strategy based on an integrated approach to using American power. By merging the many and varied powers of the United States' military, economic, political, cultural and diplomatic, the report argues, the country could be in the strongest position to address threats, prevent conflicts, and recapture its moral leadership. The report also argues that the United States must rebuild alliances with nations and lead the effort to modernize international institutions because they increase U.S. power, influence, and credibility.
