Foreign Affairs Trump Didn’t Destroy the ‘Rules-Based International Order’ It was always a fraud. Credit: Drop of Light Accusations have burgeoned that President Donald Trump is determined to destroy the “rules-based international order” established after World War II. Some of his actions certainly resemble old-style, 19th century imperialism. His initial demand that Denmark sell Greenland to the United States fits that description. One could readily envision previous presidents such as Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk, or William McKinley making a similar move for U.S. territorial aggrandizement.

Khan has settled into a strange position as London mayor: disliked nationally and locally but comfortably ensconced in office…Open

Foreign Affairs The Case for a Realist Georgia Policy President Trump’s National Security Strategy should guide U.S. policy in the Caucasus region. Credit: Janice Appels/Shutterstock The Trump Administration’s National Security Strategy (NSS) represents a clear repudiation of decades of failed post–Cold War orthodoxy. These policies advanced globalization at any cost, tolerated one-sided trade, fueled endless wars, promoted unchecked NATO enlargement, and elevated democracy promotion into a rigid doctrine guiding U.S. foreign policy. In his seminal book Where the Right Went Wrong , Pat Buchanan once described the pinnacle of this liberal internationalist project, most clearly expressed in the Bush Doctrine, as “democratic…Open
