We already have an idea of how President Trump articulates the U.S. role abroad through his \u201cAmerica First\u201d agenda. What might we expect from a Joe Biden administration? How has he talked about what America\u2019s role in the world should be, and what might we expect from a Biden administration concerning this issue in word and deed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vice President Biden\u2019s campaign rhetoric suggests he would revitalize America\u2019s commitments abroad and return to a leadership role maintained by Republicans and Democrats in the post-World War II era. I have long argued that American exceptionalism underwrites the discourse and debates concerning America\u2019s role in the world. All presidents and presidential candidates espouse the language of American exceptionalism. Where they have differed is how the&nbsp;<em>enact<\/em>&nbsp;that discourse. In American history that enactment comes through in two different narratives: the exemplar narrative and the intervention narrative. The exemplar narrative was fundamental to U.S. foreign policy rhetoric in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Exemplarists maintain America best demonstrates it leadership through the power of its example. America models institutions, behaviors, and practices domestically to influence the affairs of the world. However, exemplarists warn about intervening in the affairs of the world, particularly in Europe. If the U.S. involves itself in the affairs of other nation-states the problems of those countries could come home and harm U.S. politics. Therefore, it is best to stay out of global affairs unless it is our direct interest to do so. Interventionists assert the U.S. just cannot rely on its example to influence the affairs of the world. The U.S. must demonstrate its leadership through increasing free trade, involvement in international organizations, and actively promote its ideals and values abroad. Since the end of the World War II, Republicans and Democratic presidents have fused the exemplar and interventionist narratives together to make their case the U.S. must maintain and extend its leadership role. According to these presidents, engagement and intervention abroad protects us at home, which allows the power of America\u2019s example to flourish. At the same time, economic prosperity and improving domestic institutions gives American presidents credibility to promote similar values abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Donald Trump\u2019s presidency marks a break from that fusion rhetoric. Trump\u2019s \u201cAmerica First\u201d rhetoric privileges the exemplar narrative and emphasizes non-interventionism in today\u2019s global environment. A Joe Biden presidency, in my estimation, will reverse this trend and return to rhetorically fusing the exemplar and intervention narratives to justify global leadership abroad. There are a couple of places one can find this in Biden\u2019s campaign discourse concerning America\u2019s role in the world. First, Biden has consistently maintained that U.S. global leadership begins with our domestic example. However, the Trump administration\u2019s rhetoric and policy have increased racial tensions, exacerbated wealth inequality, failed to control the COVID-19 pandemic has gravely harmed the power of America\u2019s example. To restore American leadership abroad, Biden argues\u2014consistent with his post-World War II Democratic predecessors\u2014the United States must re-engage at home, rebuild its domestic institutions, reduce racial tension and wealth inequality, and get control the pandemic. Improving that example, striving for a \u201cmore perfect union\u201d at home, Biden asserts gives America more power to lead the world in fighting global problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A second prime example can be found in how the Biden campaign talks about relationships with other nations and international organizations. For example, Biden\u2019s running mate Kamala Harris asserted in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cfr.org\/blog\/campaign-foreign-policy-roundup-vp-candidates-discuss-foreign-policy\">vice-presidential debate<\/a>&nbsp;that foreign policy is built upon relationships. For U.S. leadership to continue, Harris argued, the U.S. must maintain and keep its word to its friends, while keeping America\u2019s adversaries in check. Harris accused the Trump administration of betraying its friends and embracing adversaries. Biden has gone further by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/election-us-2020-54472696\">speaking<\/a>&nbsp;about how he would restore friendly relations with NATO allies, rejoin the World Health Organization, the Paris Climate Accords, and the Iran nuclear deal, stop the trade war with China, and confront America\u2019s adversaries in Russia and North Korea. Biden\u2019s discourse suggests he would restore America\u2019s leadership by maintaining and extending the post-World War II liberal international order that Republican and Democratic presidents rhetorically supported for 75 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, if Joe Biden becomes president, America\u2019s role in the world will be fundamentally altered. Donald Trump\u2019s America First exemplarist rhetoric will be replaced by a foreign policy rhetoric that focuses on improving the power of America\u2019s example as a means to assert its leadership abroad, while at the same time re-engaging, restoring, and resetting its relationships with nation-states and international organizations across the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prof Jason A.
