Defense Leadership Project Looks at the National Security Culture of the Future
Transforming the National Security Culture: A Report of the Harvard Kennedy School’s Defense Leadership Project grew out of a spring 2008 CPL study group founded by Major Fernando Lujan, MPP ’08, with assistance from cofounder Major Kent Park, MPP '09, and cochair Major (Res) Paula Broadwell, MPP '08. The study group’s membership was limited to Harvard Kennedy School students with experience in the armed services or in defense-related organizations. These junior- to mid-level leaders shared the conviction that the U.S. defense establishment is not adequately equipped "to understand, visualize, or respond effectively to the modern security environment."

Gen. Petraeus Joins Harvard in a Special Salute to Student Veterans
The Center for Public Leadership’s April 21 tribute to military veterans, "Honoring Those Who Have Served: A Tribute to Student Veterans from the Harvard Kennedy, Business, and Law Schools,” was not simply a matter of local significance. Gen. David Petraeus, who, as Commander of U.S. Central Command, heads our nation’s military efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan, saw the gathering — a sequel to an event the Center sponsored in 2007 to acknowledge the role of military service in the overall work of public service — as important enough to attend in person.

Poll Reflects Continued Mistrust of Media Election Coverage
Most Americans do not trust what they hear or read in media coverage of the 2008 presidential campaign. Poll results just released by the Center for Public Leadership at Harvard Kennedy School and the Merriman River Group show that 62% of those surveyed are distrustful of campaign media coverage and that same percentage think that the media does a poor job of separating their own opinions from the facts in their reporting. The public’s trust has not improved since one year ago, when a statistically equivalent 64% said they did not trust the media’s election coverage.

Americans’ Confidence in Their Leaders Declines Sharply
80% of Americans believe that the U.S. faces a leadership crisis today—up from 77% in 2007 and 65% in 2005—according to poll results just released by the Center for Public Leadership at the Harvard Kennedy School and the Merriman River Group.

Despite this lack of confidence, the poll results reveal important points of agreement on how the next president should lead. Moreover, Americans place great importance on the 2008 election: 77% believe it matters a great deal for the future of the country, up from 65% a year ago.

New Study Finds Strong Jewish and Arab Consensus for Peaceful Coexistence in Israel
A new study finds strong support for coexistence efforts amongst a majority of Jewish and Arab citizens of Israel. The findings may buoy hopes for long-term peace in the region.

"Coexistence in Israel: A National Study" provides a compelling snapshot of current relations between Jewish and Arab citizens in Israel as the nation celebrates its 60th anniversary. Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) associate professor Todd L. Pittinsky, research director of the school’s Center for Public Leadership (CPL), served as lead researcher on the project. The study was conducted in Hebrew and Arabic, and included 1,721 adult citizens of Israel, with assistance from researchers at the University of Haifa.
