Insightful author interviews
Saturday 9 PM, 6 PM and 9 PM, Monday 12 AM ET
In The Return of History and the End of Dreams, Robert Kagan, Washington Post columnist and Carnegie Endowment for International Peace senior associate, argues that the international stability predicted after the end of the Cold War did not emerge and that instead we now have a contest for power between liberal democracies, autocratic governments, and radical Islamists. He discusses his book with Clifford May, president of The Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Mr. May was previously associate editor of The Rocky Mountain News and a reporter for The New York Times.
