It's an idea as old as history itself: turning to the record of past affairs to glean lessons for the present and insights for the future.
But all too often in modern academia, history professors don't have much of an opportunity to communicate with those in other academic disciplines such as international relations. In fact, they're not even in the same family of academia. History, you see, resides among the humanities while international relations dwells in the social sciences along with political science, linguistics, and sociology.
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (AP) — Donald Trump called Monday for "extreme vetting" of immigrants seeking admission to the United States, vowing to block those who sympathize with extremist groups or don't embrace American values. He said the policy would first require a temporary halt in immigration from dangerous regions of the world.
Speaking in swing state Ohio, Trump also said his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton lacks the "mental and physical stamina" to take on the Islamic State. He said destroying the terror group would be the centerpiece of his foreign policy and he would partner with any countries that share that goal — specifically singling out Russia as a nation the U.S. could have a better relationship with.
