Americans will soon go to the polls to elect their next president and decide control of the House and Senate. In a year of numerous elections around the globe affecting roughly half of the world’s population, the U.S. elections will be a consequential capstone with the potential to significantly impact the crises, challenges, and opportunities currently facing the international community.

Please join the NYU School of Law’s Reiss Center on Law and Security for a virtual discussion moderated by Reiss Center Non-Resident Senior Fellow Michael Wahid Hanna. An expert panel will discuss what the upcoming elections mean for the international community and global institutions, consider how global issues may inform the elections, and examine potential shifts in future U.S. foreign policy depending on the outcome of the electoral contest.
