Disrupting The Global Order With Janice Stein

In this first episode of Disrupting the Global Order, host Janice Stein begins with the biggest power of all - the United States.  China is rising and Russia is raging, but it is still the United States that pushes decisions on the big global issues. There is a great deal that the United States cannot do – especially in far flung regions of the world and particularly with stubbornly independent allies – but nobody can make much progress without the United States.  The twenty-first century, just like the twentieth, is America’s century. Derek Chollet, author of The Long Game: How Obama Defied Washington and Redefined America’s Role in the World, understands this better than almost anyone. Derek served in the Pentagon, the State Department, and the White House during the Obama presidency and had a unique opportunity to watch the Obama administration close up.
