Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Whether it’s Iraq, Palestine, or Russia, promoting democracy overseas is a pillar of the Bush administration’s foreign policy. But some say enthusiasm for the concept is wavering. We explore the impact of democracy promotion on American interests, and whether the U.S. can — and should — be working to bring about democratic transitions.
Guests
- Jennifer Windsor Executive Director, Freedom House
- Larry Diamond Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University; and founding co-editor, "Journal of Democracy"
- Marina S. Ottaway Director, Middle East Program, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
