Roots, Rights and Reason with Lee Smith

The Western Hemisphere and American Grand Strategy


Listen Later

Lee Smith discusses with Hillsdale College Professor Paul Rahe the significance of grand strategy and its influence on American foreign policy. Rahe describes grand strategy as seeing the larger picture: understanding what the country needs and coordinating military power, economic policies, diplomacy, and geography to ensure America’s safety and prosperity for many years. Their discussion reflects on the Cold War, when the U.S. had a clear grand strategy, and then shifts focus to current foreign policy. With China rising and the Western Hemisphere gaining importance, Smith and Rahe explore how powerful nations make decisions, defend what they value, and whether the U.S. still possesses the strong sense of purpose needed as the global balance of power grows more competitive.
