Join us for an insightful evening with Ambassador Stuart E. Eizenstat as he discusses topics from his new book, The Art of Diplomacy: How American Negotiators Reached Historic Agreements that Changed the World.
In his book, Ambassador Eizenstat delves into America's most significant negotiations over the past fifty years, addressing conflicts such as the Middle East peace process, "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland, and lingering World War II issues. Drawing on his extensive experience as a former top White House aide, U.S. ambassador, and undersecretary of state, Eizenstat provides valuable insights into the use of American military force as a diplomatic instrument, with lessons applicable to contemporary conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.
As a leading figure in several historic negotiations and having personally interviewed over 125 U.S. and international leaders, Ambassador Eizenstat offers a comprehensive view of international diplomacy, highlighting the personalities, issues, and breakthroughs that have shaped the world today. Don't miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of American leadership in global negotiations.
