Join Ambassador Stuart E. Eizenstat on American power and the role of diplomacy in a changing world — and his new book, The Art of Diplomacy: How American Negotiators Reached Historic Agreements that Changed the World.
The geopolitical stage is changing. What can the last three decades of diplomacy teach us about where it’s headed, what works, and what doesn’t? In The Art of Diplomacy, Stuart E. Eizenstat —former ambassador to the European Union Bill Clinton — offers fascinating insight into the minds of the people who have shaped political power in the modern age. Interviewing everyone from Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter to Secretaries of State Madeleine Albright, James A. Baker III, Antony Blinken, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice and more, Eizenstat gives an incisive account of how diplomacy works. Hear him discuss what he’s learned in the global halls of power, how it applies to the world we live in today, the secrets of political persuasion in a polarized world, and more.
