Summary |
Over the last decade, Africa has celebrated economic growth and new levels of political and economic engagement with the United States. But the continent faces many challenges to its continued economic development, security, and governance. Through hard lessons elsewhere in the world, the United States has learned that a modern foreign policy strategy must address security, good governance, and economic prosperity holistically. This paper correctly argues that the United States must engage Africa through a whole-of-society approach which transcends government-to-government relations and leverages the contributions of civil society and business. By doing so, the United States stands the best chance of not only advancing its interests--strategic and commercial--but also of promoting its values of rule of law, democracy, and good governance. If done successfully, Pham's model for a measured approach could serve as a template for a modernized American foreign policy in an era of disruptive change |
