Description
A New Foreign Policy Beyond American Exceptionalism by Jeffrey D. Sachs explores the need for a shift in America's approach to global affairs. The current focus on nationalism and unilateralism is seen as a threat to addressing pressing global challenges such as environmental threats, political upheaval, and mass migration. Sachs argues that a new foreign policy should prioritize global cooperation, international law, and aspirations for worldwide prosperity over military might and wars of choice. He proposes plans to foster global economic growth, reconfigure the United Nations, and build a multipolar world that is prosperous, peaceful, fair, and resilient. This book offers a timely and achievable vision for a new way forward in international relations, one that seeks to make peace rather than war and harness the opportunities of international cooperation.
