Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 2 ABSTRACT The aim of this research is to investigate whether the Reagan administration was influenced by ‘New Right’ ideas. Foreign policy issues were chosen as test cases because the presidency has more power in this area which is why it could promote an aggressive stance toward the United Nations and encourage withdrawal from UNESCO with little impunity. Chapter 1 deals with American society after 1945. It shows how the ground was set for the rise of Reagan and the New Right as America moved from a strong affinity with New Deal liberalism to a new form of conservatism, which the New Right and Reagan epitomised. Chapter 2 analyses the New Right as a coalition of three distinctive groups: anti-liberals, New Christian Right, and neoconservatives. -

U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress
U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress Ronald O'Rourke Specialist in Naval Affairs Michael Moodie Assistant Director and Senior Specialist in Foreign Affairs, Defense and Trade Updated February 24, 2020 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R44891 U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The U.S. role in the world refers to the overall character, purpose, or direction of U.S. participation in international affairs and the country’s overall relationship to the rest of the world. The U.S. role in the world can be viewed as establishing the overall context or framework for U.S. policymakers for developing, implementing, and measuring the success of U.S. policies and actions on specific international issues, and for foreign countries or other observers for interpreting and understanding U.S. actions on the world stage. While descriptions of the U.S. role in the world since the end of World War II vary in their specifics, it can be described in general terms as consisting of four key elements: global leadership; defense and promotion of the liberal international order; defense and promotion of freedom, democracy, and human rights; and prevention of the emergence of regional hegemons in Eurasia. The issue for Congress is whether the U.S. role in the world is changing, and if so, what implications this might have for the United States and the world. A change in the U.S. role could have significant and even profound effects on U.S. security, freedom, and prosperity. It could significantly affect U.S. -

On May 4, 2017—the National Day of Prayer—during a ceremony outside the White House, President Donald Trump signed an executive order on “Promoting Free Speech and Religious Liberty.” At the time, the executive order was reported to be a “major triumph” for Vice President Mike Pence, who, as governor of Indiana, famously signed a religious exemption law that would have opened the door to anti-LGBTQ discrimination.1 Among its other directives, the order instructed Attorney General Jeff Sessions to “issue guidance interpreting -

Even After Multiple Credible Accusations, Top Anti-Choice Advocacy Organizations Stand By Kavanaugh At All Costs Susan B. Anthony List said they are “proud to continue supporting Judge Kavanaugh and we urge the U.S. Senate to confirm him as soon as possible.” The comments came in a September 24th statement, after multiple credible accusations of sexual assault had come to light. [Susan B. Anthony List, 9/24/18] Operation Rescue: “Operation Rescue Stands Behind Judge Kavanaugh in Face of Gutter-Level Attacks.” [Twitter, 9/24/18] Priests For Life’s Frank Pavone tweeted: “We need to pray more than ever for #JudgeKavanaugh and his family! Let us also pray for @POTUS Trump to be able to drain the swamp in Washington!” [Twitter, 8/24/18] Anti-Choice Activists Have Dismissed Credible Allegations That Kavanagh Is Sexual Assaulter, In Favor Of Undermining Or Gutting Roe Students for Life’s Kristan Hawkins: Kavanaugh “is in the political battle of his life because of the abortion lobby’s efforts to keep Roe v. Wade the law of the land.” Responding to Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s account of sexual assault by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Students for Life President Kristan Hawkins told Rewire News: “We want to see the process go forward to vet the current allegations, but, in looking at the way in which the charges were handled (hidden until the hearings were over and handled by those who have been very public about their goal to oppose this nominee no matter what), we still see Judge Kavanaugh as a qualified candidate who is in the political battle of his life because of the abortion lobby’s efforts to keep Roe v.
