American Foreign Policy in the Middle East: What Are the Prospects for Success? Democratic Perspective’s co-hosts Mike Cosentino and Steve Williamson interview Stephen M. Walt, professor of international affairs at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government about U.S. Foreign Policy and the Middle East. Professor Walt is a widely respected expert on foreign policy, whose books The Origins of Alliance and Revolution and War have become standards in the field.
He is also the co-author, with John J. Mearsheimer, professor of political science at the University of Chicago, of The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, a review of the influence of Israel and its U.S. lobbyists on U.S. Middle Eastern policy, published in 2007, which has since caused a significant controversy world-wide.
