Trained in law and drawing on liberal institutionalist traditions, she argued that the state itself is disaggregating: courts, regulators, legislators, and administrative agencies increasingly cooperate directly with their counterparts abroad, forming transgovernmental networks that carry out much of the practical work of global governance. This picture challenged both the realist emphasis on unitary states pursuing power and the idea that international order depends chiefly on formal supranational institutions. In her account, dense webs of official and unofficial connection could make cooperation more effective and, potentially, more accountable.\n\nSlaughter has built on this foundation to argue that the metaphors of geopolitics need updating for an interconnected era. Alongside the older \"chessboard\" logic of states maneuvering against one another, she stresses a \"web\" logic in which influence flows from connectedness, and in which the actor best positioned to shape outcomes is the one most centrally embedded in networks. This has practical implications for how she thinks about statecraft, arguing that open societies with vibrant civic, corporate, and scientific ties enjoy a structural advantage, and that foreign policy should cultivate connection rather than merely accumulate coercive capability.\n\nHer thinking has been shaped by movement between the academy and government. As a legal academic and university administrator, and later as a senior policy-planning official in the U.S. State Department, she engaged directly with the machinery of American foreign policy, and she has subsequently led a think tank focused on questions of technology, governance, and social renewal. Her orientation is broadly liberal internationalist and reformist: skeptical of purely power-political accounts of world affairs, attentive to institutions and rules, and interested in how the digital age reshapes collective action.\n\nBeyond international relations, Slaughter became a prominent voice on the politics of work, family, and gender after publishing a widely debated essay on the difficulty of combining demanding public careers with caregiving. That intervention broadened her influence into debates about how societies value care work and structure the conditions of professional and civic life, linking her institutional interests to a wider argument about the social foundations of a functioning polity.",false,5,true,"2026-05-04T20:40:51.368746+00:00","2026-07-09T03:53:18.966904+00:00","'abroad':90C 'academ':260C 'academi':254C 'account':131C,147C,319C 'accumul':242C 'action':337C 'actor':193C 'administr':82C,263C 'advantag':231C 'affair':322C 'age':334C 'agenc':83C 'alongsid':167C 'american':33C,285C 'ann':2A,6B,28C 'anne-mari':1A,5B,27C 'anoth':177C 'argu':71C,155C,217C 'argument':399C 'attent':323C 'becam':342C 'best':194C 'beyond':338C 'broad':308C 'broaden':372C 'built':150C 'capabl':244C 'care':381C 'career':367C 'caregiv':369C 'carri':95C 'central':203C 'challeng':107C 'chessboard':170C 'chiefli':124C 'civic':223C,390C 'coerciv':243C 'collect':336C 'combin':364C 'condit':386C 'connect':23B,138C,238C 'connected':188C 'contain':58C 'cooper':85C,141C 'corpor':224C 'could':139C 'counterpart':89C 'court':78C 'cultiv':237C 'debat':358C,376C 'demand':365C 'dens':132C 'depart':277C 'depend':123C 'difficulti':362C 'digit':333C 'direct':86C,280C 'disaggreg':77C 'domain':48C 'draw':65C 'effect':143C 'embed':204C 'emphasi':111C 'engag':279C 'enjoy':228C 'era':166C 'essay':359C 'famili':351C 'flow':186C 'focus':296C 'foreign':234C,286C 'form':91C 'formal':126C 'foundat':153C,403C 'function':406C 'gender':353C 'geopolit':160C 'global':44C,103C 'govern':17B,104C,256C,301C 'idea':119C 'implic':210C 'increas':84C 'influenc':185C,374C 'institut':128C,325C,394C 'institutionalist':68C 'interconnect':165C 'interest':329C,395C 'intern':36C,39C,121C,339C 'internationalist':12B,310C 'intervent':371C 'later':265C 'law':37C,63C 'led':292C 'legal':259C 'legisl':80C 'liber':11B,67C,309C 'life':391C 'link':392C 'logic':171C,182C 'machineri':283C 'make':140C 'maneuv':174C 'mari':3A,7B,29C 'mere':241C 'metaphor':158C 'movement':251C 'much':97C 'need':161C 'network':20B,50C,93C,206C 'offici':135C,272C 'older':169C 'one':176C,201C 'open':219C 'order':122C 'orient':306C 'outcom':198C 'pictur':106C 'plan':271C 'polici':235C,270C,287C 'policy-plan':269C 'polit':45C,318C,348C 'politi':407C 'posit':195C 'potenti':145C 'power':15B,116C,317C 'power-polit':316C 'practic':100C,209C 'profession':388C 'promin':344C 'public':366C 'publish':355C 'pure':315C 'pursu':115C 'question':298C 'rather':24B,51C,239C 'realist':110C 'reconc':43C 'reformist':312C 'regul':79C 'reimagin':14B 'relat':40C,340C 'renew':304C 'reshap':335C 'rule':327C 'scholar':34C 'scientif':226C 'self':57C 'self-contain':56C 'senior':268C 'shape':197C,249C 'skeptic':313C 'slaughter':4A,8B,30C,148C,341C 'social':303C,402C 'societi':220C,379C 'sovereign':59C 'state':26B,60C,74C,114C,173C,276C 'statecraft':216C 'stress':179C 'structur':230C,384C 'subsequ':291C 'supran':127C 'system':54C 'tank':295C 'technolog':300C 'think':214C,246C,294C 'tie':227C 'tradit':69C 'train':61C 'transgovernment':92C 'u.s':275C 'unitari':113C 'univers':262C 'unoffici':137C 'updat':162C 'valu':380C 'vibrant':222C 'voic':345C 'web':133C,181C 'whose':41C 'wide':357C 'wider':398C 'work':42C,101C,350C,382C 'world':21B,321C","academic",[],[],[],[121],{"archetype_slug":98,"strength":111,"description":122},"Power in this century runs through networks of connection, not just the hard shells of states — Slaughter reimagined governance around that shift.
