Senior Fellow Dr Charles Edel chairs a roundtable for the Texas National Security Review to discuss the life and latest work of American Historian Melvyn P. Leffler. Safeguarding Democratic Capitalism is a collection of essays spanning Lffler's decades-long career which Dr Edel argues can be read as a history, a scholars personal journey, or even an insight into the practice of policymaking.
