Madeleine Albright on Foreign Policy

	Madeleine Albright on Foreign Policy

Increased role for the United States in UN operations

In the 1980s and early '90s, Albright worked for several nonprofit organizations, and her Washington, D.C., home became a salon for influential Democratic politicians and policy makers. She also was professor of international affairs at Georgetown University, Washington, D.C., from 1982 to 1993.

After the election of Pres. Bill Clinton, a Democrat, in 1992, Albright's political star began to rise, and Clinton named her ambassador to the United Nations in 1993. At the UN she gained a reputation for tough-mindedness as a fierce advocate for American interests, and she promoted an increased role for the United States in UN operations, particularly those with a military component. Her nomination to the position of secretary of state was unanimously confirmed by the Senate in 1997.
