With the continued rise of middle powers and changing dynamics within multilateral institutions, the United States now finds itself in a new strategic environment, one defined by a global diffusion of power. Emerging powers show increasing agency and influence in geopolitical conflicts and challenges. A new report from Georgetown University’s Institute for the Study of Diplomacy, “The Ripple Effect: A U.S. Diplomatic Strategy for a Changing World Order,” outlines the imperative for the United States to better leverage its diplomatic toolkit to advance U.S. interests and global security.
