The Foreign Policy of Local Politics
I have some thoughts at 1945 on the relationship between foreign policy and local politics:
It is a truism of American political consulting that it is difficult and pointless to try to convince American voters that foreign policy matters. This belief persists even as the United States has become more exposed than ever to international forces, but it is a belief that needs to change.
All politics is local, but all politics is also global, and it should be possible to find ways to connect the two.
