Recommendation
When politicians overuse the label of “national security,” leaders’ ability to categorize and prioritize threats to the United States’ well-being and security weakens, writes professor Daniel W. Drezner in this thought-provoking essay. Competing interests keep politicians from agreeing on what constitutes a true peril to national security, risking policy sclerosis and dysfunction. Students of geopolitics will find this an engaging read.
