Summer Symposium - Washington D.C.
August 1-12, 2010

Welcome to the 30th edition of the Summer Symposium on US Foreign Policy!

As in the past, Symposium participants from around the globe will gather in Washington, DC to discuss hot topics and meet newsmakers of the International Politics.

How is the Obama Administration faring in its second year? What are the prospects for peace in the Middle East? What are the prospects for instability in South or East Asia?

Come to Washington this summer to hear what the experts think
and to lend your own voice to the debates!

 

The Symposium features presentations and discussions on current critical issues in U.S. foreign policy, such as:

  • Arms Control Diplomacy
  • The Middle East
  • U.S.-Russian Relations
  • International Economic Policy
  • China, East Asia and Foreign Policy issues in the New Era

 

Structure of the program

  • Lectures and discussions at Johns Hopkins University
  • Visits and presentations at the principal U.S. Government agencies involved in foreign policy (State Department, Pentagon, the National Security Council, and the CIA)
  • Discussion sessions at foreign embassies (China, India, Israel, Iraq, Egypt, and Pakistan)
