Show Notes

When Rufus Phillips III passed away in December 2021, America lost one of its most creative foreign policy thinkers. His final book, “Stabilizing Fragile States: Why It Matters and What to Do About It,” was published posthumously in April. Join USIP for a discussion of Phillips’ legacy, how insights from his final book can help inform the implementation of the Global Fragility Act, and the future of U.S. efforts to address state fragility.
