All of the following are among the growing number of players involved in foreign policymaking except:
  1. The Department of Housing and Urban Development.
  2. The Department of Agriculture
  3. The Commerce Department
  4. The State Department
  5. The Pentagon
Explanation
Answer: A - The Department of Housing and Urban Development is one of very few Cabinet departments not to have a significant role in foreign policymaking. While it might be obvious what role Commerce, State, and Defense (the Pentagon) play in foreign policymaking, it may not be obvious how Agriculture is involved. A lot of foreign policy over the last two decades has developed around food and access to food. The Department of Agriculture, among other things, helps provide experts to other countries to show them how to effectively grow crops.
