\nForeign policy was not a major focus of the 2024 presidential campaign but developments beyond our borders do not take time out while the new American administration appoints officials and establishes priorities. Dozens of transition papers were prepared by the Biden administration and incoming officials will receive help from the professional bureaucracy\, but coping with legacy problems\, unanticipated developments\, and efforts by other countries to shape administration policy will pose daunting challenges for the new foreign policy team. Tom Fingar\, who held senior national security positions during four presidential transitions\, will describe the process and illustrate the kinds of problems the new administration will face.
