Beyond Pax Americana
The College has recently established the Margaret MacMillan North American Distinguished Visiting Lectureship.

It has been set up on a permanent basis to honour Professor Margaret MacMillan for all that she did for the College as Warden, around a subject that she is passionate about: North American Studies.

The Visiting Lectureship allows us to invite distinguished academics, historians, and authors to spend a week at St Antony’s in Trinity Term each year. The Visiting Lecturer is asked to deliver one well-publicised lecture, attend a seminar with students and, if time allows, to join an alumni event in London.

The inaugural North American Distinguished Visiting Lecturer is Dr Richard Haass (Politics, 1973). A veteran diplomat and respected scholar of international relations, Dr Haass is president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations after having served as its president for twenty years. He is also senior counselor with Centerview Partners, an international investment banking advisory firm. In 2013, he chaired the multiparty negotiations in Northern Ireland that provided the foundation for the 2014 Stormont House Agreement. For his efforts to promote peace and conflict resolution, he received the 2013 Tipperary International Peace Award.
