| Staff: | Walter Russell Mead, Henry A. Kissinger Senior Fellow for U.S. Foreign Policy |
July 1, 2003 - April 30, 2004
This Study Group met to review draft chapters of Walter Mead's book, Power, Terror, Peace, and War: America’s Grand Strategy in a World at Risk, published by Knopf.
In this book, Mead attempts to provide a short and comprehensible guide to America’s strategy in the world—-the nature of the threat, the attacks of September 11, and the Bush administration’s response—-and an evaluation of how successful it has or has not been.

The authors make recommendations for correcting this protectionist drift by proposing guidelines for how countries can better regulate FDI yet still reap its economic benefits.
