Description

Adam Posen, in the most recent issue of Foreign Affairs, published a stark argument that has generated buzz here in DC: The U.S., in his telling, has leveraged its role as a ‘global insurer’ underwriting the risks of the world’s economic system, to extract ever richer premiums from allies, demanding more and more as the price of U.S.-led security.
 
At a time when the world was already undergoing significant changes, Posen joins the Call to raise significant questions about the role of the U.S. in the years ahead: What will be the U.S. role in a chaotic new era? Will it continue to offer security and a financial haven? Or is the U.S. now a source of turmoil, leveraging uncertainty for economic gain?
