Prof. Robert Pape, director of the University of Chicago Project on Security and Threats, will moderate a wide-ranging discussion on topics ranging from Ukraine to the future of the liberal order to the prospects for foreign policy, the event is the latest in the Hagel Lecture Series on Civil Politics and International Security.
In what can only be described as tumultuous and radically polarized times, there is a hunger for trying to understand the big picture. Ambassador McFaul and Secretary Hagel have a lifetime of doing exactly that. The informal nature and intimate setting of the event offers the audience a front-row seat into the working of governments and international relations.
The Hagel Lecture Series was established in 2019 in collaboration with Secretary Hagel, CPOST, and the University of Chicago. It aims to promote open and informed debate on current foreign policy and national security challenges facing the United States.
