This seminar will explain and explore the three tribes competing for control of Republican foreign policy – the prioritizers, restrainers, and primacists. Who is up, who is down, and which side has the advantage in the long term? Special Guest: Curt Mills, Executive Director of The American Conservative Suggested Reading: Polarised power: The three Republican “tribes” that could define America’s relationship with the world (10-17-22) | Jeremy Shapiro, European Council on Foreign Relations Pritzker Fellows seminars are off the record and open to current UChicago students only.
