Strategic Visions Volume 25 (No. 2) Spring 2025

This issue of Strategic Visions, Volume 25, Issue 2 (Spring 2025), features the usual “News from the Director” and “Note from the Davis Fellow” sections, reflecting on this past semester’s colloquium series. This issue also includes two timely and thought-provoking interviews: one with Dr. Michael Kimmage on the war in Ukraine and the shifting dynamics of U.S. foreign policy, and another with Dr. Osamah Khalil on the legacy of 9/11 and the evolving role of fear, intervention, and power in American global strategy. This issue features our, “News from the CENFAD Community” section, where readers can catch up on recent accomplishments and updates from CENFAD’s broader network of alumni, students, and faculty. We also feature a profile of Abby Lewis, Director of the Center for European Studies, highlighting her vision for deepening CES’s ties with CENFAD and expanding transatlantic collaboration. In addition, we are pleased to share a contribution from Ella Scalese, this year’s CENFAD Emerging Scholar, who reflects on her research and the relationship between diplomacy, military, and public history.
