Interviews

Conversations with writers, practitioners, scholars and analysts at the frontlines of international affairs. The goal is not only to profile the interviewee but to surface ideas and perspectives that cannot be found elsewhere. Every question carries a point of view. Every conversation builds toward something. Intelligence and insight visible in what is asked, the response and what is pushed back on.
