While the United States faces threats from hostile foreign countries, global health crises, terrorists, and climate change, the greatest challenge to American national security stems not from abroad but from here at home, from forces and developments that threaten American democracy. In his new, New York Times bestselling book The Bill of Obligations: The Ten Habits of Good Citizens, Dr. Richard Haass argues that the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the Constitution, cannot alone provide the basis for a flourishing democracy, and that we must also embrace our obligations as Americans to one another and to this country
Dr. Richard Haass is in his twentieth year as president of the Council on Foreign Relations. He previously served in the State Department under Presidents George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan, at the White House under George H.W. Bush, and the Pentagon during the Carter administration. He was US envoy to the Cyprus negotiations and the Northern Ireland peace process, and after 9/11 was US coordinator for the future of Afghanistan.
