Americans disagree on fundamental aspects of domestic and global affairs, but they are largely united behind the idea that America should play a leadership role in the world. What does this unity and division mean for making foreign policy decisions in a complex and interconnected world? A new major CSIS International Security Program report and public conference explore whether and how domestic political, geographic, racial, socio-economic, and other divisions impact U.S. national security and engagements abroad and identifies opportunities for cooperation.

The report argues that concerted U.S. international engagement is critical in a time of heightened geopolitical tension, increasingly assertive adversaries, and the lingering health and economic effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings will help policymakers understand the scope of the divides and the opportunities for working together to bridge them, along with the need for leadership and outreach to a diverse set of domestic audiences.
