Categories: Politics & Social Sciences
Foreign Policy Begins at Home: The Case for Putting America's House in Order (2013) is a book by Richard N. Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations. Haass argues that America's greatest threat comes from weaknesses at home, and that restoring the economy, education and infrastructure is the foundation of its power abroad. He calls for less military overreach and more investment in domestic strength.

- Fareed Zakaria: “This week's book of the week is by Richard Haass, a frequent GPS guest, including today. It's called "Foreign Policy Begins at Home." It's a brief, sensible and highly intelligent argument that America's influence abroad comes first and foremost from its strength at home.”
