Great Decisions: The Third Nuclear Age

U.S. alliance skepticism may drive countries like Japan and South Korea to reconsider nuclear options. What are the implications of the Trump administration’s rethinking of the U.S. alliance system for regional and global security? Will this new uncertainty alter the way allies and rivals in various regions make decisions about security and nuclear weapons?

Join us for a discussion of “The Third Nuclear Age: Trump, The Order and the Bomb” by Gideon Rose.

A brief presentation will be followed by a courteous group discussion based on the article.
