Stanford Institute For International Studies

The Stanford Institute for International Studies is a comglomerate of research centers at Stanford University in Stanford, California. The institute is composed of five research centers: Founded in 1983 as the Institute for International Studies, IIS added Stanford to the beginning of its name in 2003, and is abbreviated as Stanford IIS. IIS was founded by former Stanford President Richard Wall Lyman, who became its first director. The Institute sponsors various programs in international relations, including Technology Education Connecting Cultures and Stanford-Iraq Student Exchange. The current director of Stanford IIS is Coit D. Blacker, who served as Special Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs and Senior Director for Russian, Ukrainian and Eurasian Affairs at the National Security Council during the presidency of Bill Clinton under National Security Advisor Anthony Lake. The deputy director's post was vacated in February 2005, when Stephen D. Krasner left to become Director of Policy Planning at the State Department under Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in the presidency of George W. Bush. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (under George W. Bush) and former Secretary of Defense William Perry (under Bill Clinton) are among the faculty members of Stanford IIS.
