Dr. Andrea Grove, assistant professor of political science at Westminster College, will present "Understanding U.S. Foreign Policy Toward Pakistan: Why the War on Terror Fuels the Jihad" at Faculty Forum Wednesday, April 12, at 11:45 a.m. in the Sebastian Mueller Theater located in the McKelvey Campus Center.
"This presentation is based on a chapter in my forthcoming book about leadership in international relations," Grove said. "I will discuss how focusing on General Musharraf's leadership strategies allow us to see clearly that American foreign policy toward post-September 11 Pakistan is deeply misguided: The United States sees Pakistan's Musharraf as a key to fighting terrorism, but in fact Pakistan has become one of its central staging grounds."
Grove, who has been with Westminster College since 2000, earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Georgia, master's from Lancaster University, and Ph.D. from the Ohio State University.
