The Mortara Center for International Studies Walsh School of Foreign Service Georgetown University Annual Report 2017 - 2018 About the Center
The Mortara Center for International Studies Walsh School of Foreign Service Georgetown University Annual Report 2017 - 2018 About the Center Officially opened in January 2003, the Mortara Center for International Studies was founded through the generosity of the late Mr. Michael P. Mortara, his wife, Mrs. Virginia Mortara, and friends and colleagues. The Mortara family envisioned a center of scholarly inquiry at the School of Foreign Service that would embody the mission of the School and its focus on the intersection of theory and practice in international affairs. Mission Statement The Mortara Center for International Studies seeks to advance schlarship and inform policy by combining the expertise of scholars and experience of international affairs practitioners to illuminate the fundamental forces - political, economic and cultural - that shape international relations. To realize this mission, the Center: • organizes and cosponsors lectures, workshops and conferences • provides support for research and publications • generates communities of research 1 LetterLetter fromfrom thethe DirectorDirector Dear Friends of the Mortara Center, Over the past year, the Mortara Center has con- tinued to promote and energize faculty and student research at the School of Foreign Service. Focusing on pressing global problems from climate change to financial crisis to mitigating violence in post-conflict states, the Center has hosted hundreds of events, con- vened working groups, and supported deep student mentorship experiences through the Mortara Under- graduate Research Fellowship program. For the 2017-2018 annual report, I would like to draw your attention to two exceptional programs, which exemplify the extraordinary work happening at Mortara and the School. The Center was honored to host the launch of the Mortara Distinguished Professor of Diplomacy Madeleine Albright’s book Fascism: A Warning. -

The Social Construction of Social Capital and the Politics of Language
POLITICSSMITH and & KULYNYCH SOCIETY It May Be Social, but Why Is It Capital? The Social Construction of Social Capital and the Politics of Language STEPHEN SAMUEL SMITH JESSICA KULYNYCH Although the referents of the term social capital merit sustained inquiry, the term impedes understanding because of the historical association of the word capital with economic discourse. As a result of this association, applying the term social capital to civic engagement blurs crucial analytic distinctions. Moreover, there are important ideological consequences to considering things such as bowling leagues to be a form of capital and urging citizens to become social capitalists. The term social capacity, the authors argue, provides the same heuristic benefits as the term social capital without extending illusory promises of theoretical parsimony with the financial/human/social capital trinity. The word Capital had been part of legal and business terminology long before economists found employment for it. With the Roman jurists and their successors, it denoted the “prin- cipal” of a loan as distinguished from interest and other accessory claims of the lender....Thus the concept was essentially monetary, meaning either actual money, or claims to money, or some goods evaluated in money. Also, though not quite definite, its meaning was perfectly unequivocal, and there was no doubt about what was meant in every Both authors contributed equally to the writing of this article; our names are listed in random order. An earlier version of this article was presented at the 1999 annual meeting of the American Political Science Association, Atlanta, GA. Smith’s work on the article is part of a larger project on urban edu- cation in Charlotte, North Carolina, that is funded by grants from the Spencer Foundation, the Parker Foundation, and the Winthrop University Research Council. -

Notes Chapter 1 1. There are, of course, many “Americas.” Here, I use the word “America” interchangeably with the “United States.” I also use the words “work” and “labor” interchangeably throughout this book. This is a self-conscious decision in spite of the distinction Hannah Arendt draws between work and labor. See Hannah Arendt, The Human Condition (Chicago: Univer- sity of Chicago Press, 1998). 2. To be sure, the occurrence of the word “dream” in these speeches may or may not refer to the American Dream as such. Yet, a close reading of the texts yields the conclusion that it most often does. These speeches are available at the University of California, Santa Barbara’s “American Presidency Project” website. Available at http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/; last accessed August 5, 2012. The numbers cited here reflect the follow- ing methodological considerations: (a) I have only taken into account the first of a series of six State of the Union addresses by Richard Nixon (1973); (b) I have excluded Reagan’s (1981), Bush’s (1989), Clinton’s (1993), Bush’s (2001), and Obama’s (2009) addresses before joint sessions of Congress because these were not technically State of the Union mes- sages; and (c) the word “undreamed” has been counted as an occurrence of the word “dream.” 3.

Is American Multilateralism in Decline?
Articles Is American Multilateralism in Decline? Is American Multilateralism in Decline? By G. John Ikenberry American foreign policy appears to have taken a sharp unilateral turn. A half century of U.S. leadership in constructing an inter- national order organized around multilateral institutions, rule-based agreements, and alliance partnerships seems to be giving way to an assertive unilateralism. But how deeply rooted is this unilateral turn? Is it an inevitable feature of America’s rising global power position? This article argues that the United States is not doomed to shed its multilateral orientation. Unipolar power pro- vides new opportunities for the United States to act unilaterally, but the incentives are actually quite complex and cross-cutting; and these incentives arguably make multilateralism more rather than less desirable for Washington in many policy areas. merican foreign policy appears to have taken a sharp unilat- After eight years during which foreign policy success was largely meas- eral turn.

Affecting the World: Political Science Education and Relevance
Affecting the World: Political Science Education and Relevance by Matthew Stein Abstract: Since the establishment of the American Political Science Association (APSA), American political scientists have sought to bridge the gap between scholarly research and political action. Frank Goodnow, the first president of APSA argued in 1904 that the study of politics can, or plausibly must speak to the political world. Over 100 years later, former APSA president Jennifer Hochschild echoes this sentiment by arguing that increased relevance is one cause for optimism in a politically pessimistic time. Christina Greer recently followed this line of thought by arguing in APSA’s 2018 Election Reflection Series that political scientists ought to focus on informing the public on relevant topics. Political scientists continue to debate how we can best achieve relevance. However, one approach to becoming relevant which is often overlooked is a turn to focusing on classroom education. My argument counters the tendency to treat our educational responsibilities as a non-factor with regards to becoming a more relevant discipline. Although the desire to become more relevant is noble, success will require that we view teaching as a gateway to, rather than an obstacle to becoming relevant. Undergraduates who major in political science work in the very fields we wish to discuss and impact including government, law, and non-profit organizations. Therefore, if we wish to be a relevant field, political science academics ought to primarily focus on student education. Political Science and the 115 Year Pursuit of Relevance For at least the past 115 years – since the formation of the American Political Science Association (APSA) – political scientists have stated a desire for the field to be relevant. -
