Event description: 

The Jackson Institute for Global Affairs will host an online discussion with former World Bank President Amb. Robert Zoellick about his new book, “America in the World: A History of U.S. Diplomacy and Foreign Policy.” 


Amb. John Negroponte, Jackson Senior Fellow, and Arne Westad, Elihu Professor of History and Global Affairs at Yale, will join the discussion. 
Zoellick has served as Deputy Secretary, Under Secretary, and Counselor of the State Department; Ambassador and U.S. Trade Representative; Counselor to the Secretary of the Treasury; Deputy Chief of Staff at the White House; and President of the World Bank. His experience spans six U.S. Presidencies—during the Cold War, in its closing chapter, and into the first decades of the 21st century. Zoellick is now a Senior Fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government. 
The event is free and open to the public, but pre-registration via Zoom is required.
