This interview session will bring together experts from the field of domestic and foreign policy to discuss the changing nature of power and conflict. Large-scale military operations abroad seem to occur with less frequency and less public support; armed forces are increasingly called on to fulfil more active domestic duties, further, from trade wars to Covid-19, a creeping nationalism is evident in state approaches. Given these issues, this panel asks whether foreign policy has become “domesticated”? And, if so, what are the implications for the future of strategy?

Speakers:

Professor Beatrice Heuser, Professor of International Relations(Politics), University of Glasgow

Claudia Crawford, Director, Konrad Adenauer Foundation Multilateral Dialogue, Vienna

Dr Dennis de Tray, International Development & Counterin-surgency Expert
