“…40 After the election, Gimenez said "We didn't have to call them [Democrats] socialist, they called themselves socialists." 41 Reflecting on her loss, Shalala suggested that help from a surrogate such as former secretary of state, Madeleine Albright, who fought in her life against fascism, socialism, and communism, and a coherent policy toward the Latin American region, would have increased her appeal to voters. According to Shalala, "The charges of socialism were unfounded but apparently effective.…”

Welcome to South FloridaFlorida's 26th and 27th Congressional Districts have been swing districts in this swing electoral state over the past decade. The seats have both flipped party control in recent elections. In 2018, both districts were viewed as must wins if Democrats were going to gain majority control of the House of Representatives. Democrats won the seats when Debbie Mucarsel-Powell defeated Republican incumbent Carlos Curbelo in District 26 and Donna Shalala beat Maria Elvira Salazar for the open 27th District seat. In 2020, these two majority Hispanic districts dominated by Cuban American voters were again seen as part of the road back to a majority, or at least an enlarged minority, this time for Republicans.In a year of volatile politics, Donald Trump won the popular vote in Florida while losing the national popular and Electoral College votes.

Personal commitments are a ubiquitous but undertheorized phenomenon in the everyday wheels of world politics. While resonating with multiple threads in international relations theory, the role of individuals’ commitments in statecraft, diplomacy, and foreign policy has hardly been addressed in and of itself. Drawing on insights from symbolic interactionism and organizational psychology, this article conceptualizes the notion of commitment highlighting its omnipresence in foreign policy and diplomatic practice. Specifically, the article demonstrates the analytical cache of the notion of commitment by focusing on moments when state-agents deviated from their commitment to the national interest, acting on behalf of other foci of commitment. Relying on Israeli, French, and EU diplomatic archives, we examine three illustrative case studies that show how and why state-agents dedicate time, energy, and resources to advance interests other than those of the state.
