America adrift: the end of the east coast foreign policy elite

America is undergoing rapid demographic change. By the mid-21st century, European Americans, long the country’s largest demographic group, will be roughly equal in numbers to Hispanic, African, and Asian Americans.

In this lecture, Anne-Marie Slaughter considered the possibilities and challenges this shift poses for the Atlantic Hemisphere and the future of transatlantic relations.

Please note that this event is part of the America's Changing Role in the World lecture series, taking place over the 2025-26 academic year.
