A Resource from U.S. in the World

U.S. in the World Guide

U.S. in the World’s initial multi-issue communicators’ guide was published by the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and The Aspen Institute in 2004, to wide and bipartisan acclaim.  U.S. in the World: Talking Global Issues with Americans has become an invaluable resource for advocates and experts who want to talk with Americans about a cooperative, constructive, principled, and farsighted global role for the United States.   Broken down into general themes and a number of specific foreign policy issues, the guide features compact summaries of core arguments, messaging recommendations and sample answers to frequently asked questions.

A PDF version of the guide is available here.   A small number of print copies of the guide are still available for purchase; contact usitw@usintheworld.org for details.
