Foreign Policy In Focus (FPIF), a cooperative project of two independent foreign policy research and analysis institutions--the Interhemispheric Resource Center and the Institute for Policy Studies, aims to provide the public and policy-makers with "recommendations for a more responsible and visionary US foreign policy." The FPIF project publishes a series of In Focus policy briefs as well as an electronic newsletter entitled The Progressive Response, which summarizes the In Focus briefs and informs readers about new developments in policy issues. Recent In Focus briefs include "US Russia Security Relations," "Aid to Russia," "Drug Certification," and "Democratizing the Trade Debate."
