Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1994 Summit of the Americas, the first such gathering of hemispheric leaders in over a generation, defined a new substantive agenda and architecture for United States-Latin American relations. The summit committed participating countries to negotiate a Free Trade Area of the Americas by 2005 and to defending the region's democratic institutions.This book, whose author actively participated in planning the summit, traces the White House's decision to convene the summit, analyzes the administration's foreign affairs decision making, and details the other countries' diplomatic strategies for contributing to the summit agenda. Feinberg critically assesses post-summit implementation and makes specific recommendations for the second summit, planned for 1998, and for maintaining the momentum for liberalization in the Americas.

Book Partnership for the Americas  Western Hemisphere Strategy and U S  Southern Command

Download or read book Partnership for the Americas Western Hemisphere Strategy and U S Southern Command written by James G. Stavridis and published by NDU Press. This book was released on 2014-02-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its creation in 1963, United States Southern Command has been led by 30 senior officers representing all four of the armed forces. None has undertaken his leadership responsibilities with the cultural sensitivity and creativity demonstrated by Admiral Jim Stavridis during his tenure in command. Breaking with tradition, Admiral Stavridis discarded the customary military model as he organized the Southern Command Headquarters. In its place he created an organization designed not to subdue adversaries, but instead to build durable and enduring partnerships with friends. His observation that it is the business of Southern Command to launch "ideas not missiles" into the command's area of responsibility gained strategic resonance throughout the Caribbean and Central and South America, and at the highest levels in Washington, DC.

Book The Fifth Summit of the Americas

Download or read book The Fifth Summit of the Americas written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Heads of state of the Western Hemisphere will gather in Trinidad and Tobago on April 17-19 for the Fifth Summit of the Americas. Although recent summits--especially the last one in Mar del Plata in 2005--have been far from successful, this year's summit has generated attention because it will be the first meeting between President Obama and many of his Latin American and Caribbean counterparts. No one expects the lofty ambition of the 1994 Miami Summit, when the Free Trade Area of the Americas was announced as an overarching regional goal. History suggests the need for a more pragmatic approach. Some concrete steps can be undertaken in the direction of building regional solutions to global challenges. The general idea is that the reemergence of multilateralism, with the formation of a solid bloc of regional partners, is a natural first step. The regional dimension is not only the result of geography but also of the joint commitment to democratic institutions. Countries in Latin America have experienced remarkable economic and social progress in the recent years. This creates self-confidence, which is an important element of the new dialogue with Washington. A partnership seems desirable and viable in the hemisphere. Given its magnitude, the global economic recession will unavoidably become a central theme during the summit. Countries in Latin America and the Caribbean are beginning to see sharp contractions in industrial production, reduced confidence and higher unemployment. In January, industrial output fell 11 percent in Mexico and Colombia, and an astonishing 17 percent in Brazil. Exports are also plunging with reduced demand in the developed world and low commodity prices. Chile and Peru, among the largest commodity exporters of the region, saw exports decline in January by 42 and 39 percent, respectively. Overall growth projections are being revised downwards at an unprecedented pace. Consensus estimates predict that the region's growth will come to a halt this year, and that next year's could be even worse. The fact that countries of the region have extremely different characteristics should not be underestimated. The degree of demographic and economic interdependence with the United States is a key element that should be considered. The extent to which countries have opened their economies in the global market, the advance of democratic governance, the effectiveness of institutions, and the extent to which traditionally excluded populations are incorporated, are critical dimensions that deserve consideration."--Introduction.

Download or read book Interfaith Leadership written by Eboo Patel and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2016-07-05 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide for students, groups, and organizations seeking to foster interfaith dialogue and promote understanding across religious lines In this book, renowned interfaith leader Eboo Patel offers a clear, detailed, and practical guide to interfaith leadership, illustrated with compelling examples. Patel explains what interfaith leadership is and explores the core competencies and skills of interfaith leadership, before turning to the issues interfaith leaders face and how they can prepare to solve them. Interfaith leaders seek points of connection and commonality—in their neighborhoods, schools, college campuses, companies, organizations, hospitals, and other spaces where people of different faiths interact with one another. While it can be challenging to navigate the differences and disagreements that can arise from these interactions, skilled interfaith leaders are vital if we are to have a strong, religiously diverse democracy. This primer presents readers with the philosophical underpinnings of interfaith theory and outlines the skills necessary to practice interfaith leadership today.

Book Special Providence

Download or read book Special Providence written by Walter Russell Mead and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God has a special providence for fools, drunks and the United States of America."--Otto von Bismarck America's response to the September 11 attacks spotlighted many of the country's longstanding goals on the world stage: to protect liberty at home, to secure America's economic interests, to spread democracy in totalitarian regimes and to vanquish the enemy utterly. One of America's leading foreign policy thinkers, Walter Russell Mead, argues that these diverse, conflicting impulses have in fact been the key to the U.S.'s success in the world. In a sweeping new synthesis, Mead uncovers four distinct historical patterns in foreign policy, each exemplified by a towering figure from our past. Wilsonians are moral missionaries, making the world safe for democracy by creating international watchdogs like the U.N. Hamiltonians likewise support international engagement, but their goal is to open foreign markets and expand the economy. Populist Jacksonians support a strong military, one that should be used rarely, but then with overwhelming force to bring the enemy to its knees. Jeffersonians, concerned primarily with liberty at home, are suspicious of both big military and large-scale international projects. A striking new vision of America's place in the world, Special Providence transcends stale debates about realists vs. idealists and hawks vs. doves to provide a revolutionary, nuanced, historically-grounded view of American foreign policy.
