The Bill of Obligations: The Ten Habits of Good Citizens

More from this show

In this episode, the topic is how the greatest danger to our nation arises not from external threats but from the deep-seated divisions within our own borders that weaken the fabric of citizenship. The Bill of Obligations presents a comprehensive strategy for civic education aimed at rejuvenating American democracy.

Joining us to discuss is Dr. Richard Haass, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations and Senior Counselor with Centerview Partners, a distinguished figure in this effort. With extensive experience as a former Director of Policy Planning at the U.S. State Department and a seasoned diplomat, Dr. Haass has served in four presidential administrations.
