The Trump administration is poised to renew focus on the Western Hemisphere. In doing so, the US must seek sustainable, long-term economic agreements, joint security measures for the 21st century, and cultural exchanges to strengthen hemispheric relations: hoover.org/research/america-âŠ

The US neglects Latin America and the Caribbean at its peril. Heeding George Shultzâs advice that âforeign policy starts in your own neighborhood,â the US needs a proactive policy for regional engagement. Itâs time to put the Americas First. My latest: hoover.org/research/americasâŠ

It was a great honor to review @David_M_Wight's brilliant book Oil Money for @HNet_Humanities! It uniquely shows how #petrodollars remade US-Middle East relations in the 1970s, with profound repercussions to this day.
