Dr. Walter Reich was a nonresident senior fellow in the Foreign Policy program at Brookings, working closely with the Center for Middle East Policy as well as on a project on emerging threats to liberal democracies. With regard to these threats, Dr. Reich has special interests in the rise of nationalism, xenophobia, and anti-Semitism; limitations on speech; the degradation of democratic institutions; and self-serving revisions of national historical narratives, especially in Eastern Europe. He is also an expert on the Holocaust, Holocaust memory, and anti-Semitism around the world; the origins of terrorism; human rights; and the psychological and ethical dimensions of human behavior in governmental leadership and in international affairs.
