WHAT NOW? A Debate on America in the World

Doors open 8:30 A.M. Enter at McDougal Street. For security reasons, please present a photo I.D.
A gap has opened between foreign and domestic perceptions of where America stands in the contemporary world, the choices it faces, and the paths it ought to pursue. Many Americans are unaware of the ways the world looks at America, just as many foreign observers have only an incomplete understanding of America's own concerns since September 11, 2001. On May 10th, New York University will host a major public conversation about the dilemma facing United States foreign relations today.
