Abstract

From the outside one the most important questions in the US election is whether the US will continue its abandonment of the liberal order, including a commitment to core human rights-charters. Rasmus Søndergaard digs into a crucial precedence, when Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan were battling over whether human rights should inform American foreign policy.
