Aaron David Miller Speaking Topics

America and the World

America faces a challenging world where powers large and small seek to contain and undermine its influence. Domestic political dysfunction further US capacity to project its power abroad. How do we protect our vital interests -- (what me must have) as opposed to our discretionary interests (what it would be nice to have)? Here are the ten takeaways for a smart and effective US foreign policy.

Gulliver's Troubles: America and the Middle East

The Middle East is no longer as central to US foreign policy as it has been in recent decades. This region presents the US with a conundrum: we cannot transform it and we cannot extricate ourselves from it. If there's no transformation and no extrication, the answer lies in smart transaction. This presentation will provide the keys to finding that balance.

The End of Greatness: Why America Can't Have and (Doesn't Want) Another Great President

Throughout our history we have has three -- and only three undeniably great presidents -- one a century; Washington in the 18th; Lincoln in the 19th; and FDR in the 20th; Americans are obsessed with greatness in the presidency. And yet the recipe for producing that greatness -- crisis, character and capacity (the so-called 3Cs) have long since disappeared. Why has greatness gone the way of the dodo; and if we can't have great presidents, what kind of chief executive can we have. Take a romp through the presidential history to find out.

Twenty-five Years of Traveling the Negotiator's Highway

Having worked for six Secretaries of State on Arab-Israeli negotiations, I've had a twenty-five year front row seat to America's successes and failures. When do negotiations work and when don't they? Are there core elements that hold the key to a successful deal; and can those elements be applied in other domains and areas of the human enterprise. Tune in and find out.
