About Power & Policy | Power & Policy. Power & Policy is a virtual forum for debating the exercise of American power in the world. The principal bloggers are Harvard Kennedy School faculty members and associates who have spent decades studying how power works. Many of them have used power themselves, in a range of government and military roles, so they understand first-hand the realities and constraints. The blog is hosted by the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, the Kennedy School’s principal center for global policy analysis.
The blog invites submissions from guest bloggers, and encourages lively but civil discussion through comments. All commenters are required to disclose their names to ensure accountability and full disclosure of interests. Power & Policy focuses on policy issues, not the party politics of the day. It stays close to the headlines and the key challenges facing the Obama Administration and other governments. We plan to use video blog entries, graphics and maps to enrich the text.
