"Sachs is probably the most important economist in the world"— The New York
Times
Jeffrey Sachs has some advice for the next U.S. President: ditch both Donald
Trump's 'America first' policies and the interventionism of previous presidents.
EFTA01034223
Start building alliances with Russia and China to deal with the myriad threats
our world faces today — environmental disaster, mass migration, political
upheaval and slack growth. Bring an immediate end to Trump's aggressive
protectionism, which will only accelerate America's decline and strengthen
China's competitive economic edge. Redirect America's massive military
budget towards increased funding for sustainable development, the United
Nations and American diplomatic soft power. And above all, put an end to
America's costly overseas meddling.
Magical thinking? Not so, says Sachs. On Monday June 10th Sachs — the
Columbia economics professor who has served as adviser to dozens of heads
of state and governments — will come to the Intelligence Squared stage to
discuss his radical new vision for U.S. foreign policy. Instead of a world where
America reigns as the sole superpower, Sachs will outline his plan for a new
international system of equals, where America shares power and collaborates
with former geopolitical rivals to solve today's global crises.
According to Sachs, this new foreign policy isn't just desirable from a moral
perspective — it also offers a remarkable return on investment in contrast to
expensive overseas intervention and needless confrontation with China.
Everyone, Sachs claims, stands to gain from this new international order. But
others disagree. Isn't this exactly the kind of American foreign policy that anti-
Western authoritarians like Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping dream of — a world
without robust American leadership? Don't our cherished freedoms depend on
a strong, assertive American presence overseas?
Join us and hear one of the world's most influential thinkers, in conversation
with the BBC's Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet, debate these
most vital issues of our times.
