With Professor Ian Shapiro, Sterling Professor of Political Science at Yale University and author of Containment: rebuilding a strategy against global terror

Ian Shapiro argues that the Bush Doctrine of preemptive war and unilateral action has been marked by incompetence - missed opportunities to capture Osama bin Laden, failures of postwar planning for Iraq, and lack of an exit strategy. And the problems run even deeper. Shapiro will explain how the Bush Doctrine departs from the best traditions of American national-security policy and accepted international norms, and renders Americans and democratic values less safe. He debunks the belief that containment is obsolete. Terror networks might be elusive, but the enabling states that make them dangerous can be contained. Shapiro defends containment against charges of appeasement, arguing that force against a direct threat will be needed. He outlines new approaches to intelligence, finance, allies, diplomacy, and international institutions. He explains why containment is the best alternative to a misguided agenda that naively assumes democratic regime change is possible from the barrel of an American gun.
