Description
Special guest Henry Kissinger questions the United States' capacity to effectively implement an ambitious policy of democratization as pursued in Iraq and Afghanistan: "As a nation we have to understand our reach, but also our limits." The panel, which also includes Lorne Cramer, president of the International Republican Institute and Ken Wollack, president of the National Democratic Institute, considers the utility and effectiveness of a democratization policy in terms of overarching U.S. economic and security interests. For further highlights on this panel, read the live blog.
