Social:Progressive realism
Progressive realism is an American foreign policy paradigm largely made popular by Robert Wright in 2006[1] which focuses on producing measurable results in pursuit of widely supported goals.[2] It supports stronger international institutions, free trade, and U.S. national interests.[2] Progressive realists' beliefs stand in stark contrast to those of neoconservatives. Unlike neoconservatives, progressive realists highlight the importance of strong participation in the United Nations and acquiescence to international law.[3] They assert that international security and economic interdependence enable international governance to advance national interests.[3][4] The policy emphasizes the need to convert "hard" power and "soft" power into "smart" power.[5]
