New Research to Bridge the Gap: Dr. Tom Long
Channel: New America
Date: 2022-05-04

Join New America’s New Models of Policy Change Initiative and Bridging the Gap for the latest event in a series of conversations about new research in national security and foreign policy. We aim to bridge the gap between academics and practitioners by bringing you discussions that dig into both the substance and policy implications of cutting-edge research.

We will discuss Dr. Tom Long’s new book A Small State's Guide to Influence in World Politics, which shows how small states can identify opportunities and shape effective strategies to achieve their foreign policy goals. It will also help U.S. policymakers understand how small states may seek to gain influence in an increasingly multipolar world.

Follow the conversation online with @PolReformNA and @BtGProjectDC.
