and many others. Bring-
ing together two key as-
pects of Clinton’s ongo-
ing career--her advocacy
for international wom-
en’s rights and the mis-
sion to foster democratic
development around the
world--I argue Clinton is
a transformative leader
“
women’s development?
DS: Yes, they are neg-
atively correlated. In
parts of the world where
women’s development is
poor, terrorism seems to
fester unabated.
KW: Can you eradicate
conditions of terrorism
fully tested?
DS: There is lots of evi-
dence to suggest that this
idea is internally consis-
tent, but it needs more
empirical testing. For in-
stance, increase women’s
education leads to better
conditions for young
girls and families.
The essays in this collection provide
insight into Clinton’s leadership
style, particularly her use of Amer-
ican ‘Smart Power’ in foreign policy
of global inluence.
KW: What message
do you think people will
take away from the book?
DS: The essays in this
collection provide in-
sight into Clinton’s lead-
ership style, particular-
ly her use of American
“Smart Power” in foreign
policy, while examining
her impact on the con-
tinuing worldwide strug-
gle for women’s rights.
Using an international
perspective on the his-
torical and cultural con-
texts of Clinton’s leader-
ship, this book also looks
toward the future of
women’s political leader-
ship in the 21st Century
with special attention to
the prospect of electing
a woman to the United
States’ presidency. The
big takeaway is the idea
of “smart power.”
KW: How would you
deine Smart Power?
DS: The idea of Smart
Power was proposed by
Joseph Nye, a political
scientist at Harvard Uni-
versity. He has argued
that the United States
needs to rely on the com-
bination of both ‘hard’
military power and ‘sot’
cultural power to deal
with the host of new
challenges we face in the
post-9/11 world. Hillary
Clinton has been a cham-
pion of this idea at the
State Department.
KW: How does Smart
Power relate to women’s
development?
DS: The project for
women’s development is
one of the stronger initia-
tives pushed by the U.S.
government in diferent
parts of the world. It is
a key component of the
Smart Power approach
advanced by Hillary
Clinton. She believes that
in parts of the world with
high degrees of unrest
and instability, women’s
development tends to be
abysmally poor.
KW: Is there a link
between terrorism and
by improving the condi-
tions of women?
DS: In summary, yes,
that is the theory behind
the claim.
KW: Has this idea been
KW: Does
the book deal
with this is-
sue?
DS: Yes, the
book presents
essays
and
evidence from diferent
parts of the world--Afri-
ca, Asia, Europe, and the
US--to suggest that this
is one of the main issues
Hillary Clinton has been
advancing throughout

her career.
KW: Is this book at all
biographical?
DS: Yes, at the mar-
gins, we delve into her
biography to the extent
it impacts her social pol-
icy ideas. We have tried
to show in the book that
some of these policy
ideas she has been ad-
vocating for a long time
— at Yale Law School,
the keynote speech at a
Women’s Rights confer-
ence 20 years ago in Bei-
jing [“Women’s Rights
Are Human Rights”], and
recently as Secretary of
State--are focused on de-

KW: Finally, would
you say the US is “excep-
tional” when it comes to
women’s rights?
DS: Yes, it is “excep-
tional” in advocating for
women’s rights world-
wide.
But it still lags in terms
of political representa-
tion of women in elected
oices, and it is really
an exception to the rule
in not having elected a
female head of state or a
woman president.
KW: Thanks again for
the time, Dinesh, and best
of luck with the book.
DS: Thank you, Kam.
