The Turn: American Foreign Policy 2009 to 2011 - Inaugural Fulbright Lecture in International Relations

Professor Slaughter discussed how the nature of US foreign policy during the Obama administration has shifted from purely government - government diplomacy to place far greater emphasis on government - society relations and on society - society relations. As part of this shift development has come to assume a much higher priority in US foreign policy, alongside defence and traditional diplomacy. Introduced by Professor Sir Adam Roberts and Professor Andrew Hurrell and hosted by the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford, in association with the US-UK Fulbright Commission, the United States Embassy, Pembroke College and the Roth Endowment.
