College Student Union Debates America’s Role in the
World |
 |
The Pomona Student Union will host two renowned foreign
policy experts, John Mearsheimer and Jonathan Schell, for
“The Great Debate: America’s Role in the World,” a
discussion of the future of U.S. foreign policy in a
post-Iraq era. This event will be held on Thursday, October
5th, at 7 p.m. at Pomona College.
Mearsheimer was recently ranked as the fifth most
influential international relations theorist in the past 20
years. Mearsheimer is the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished
Service Professor of political science at the University of
Chicago. He is the author of Conventional
Deterrence, Nuclear Deterrence: Ethics and Strategy,
Liddell Hart and the Weight of History, and The
Tragedy of Great Power Politics. Mearsheimer is a
leading proponent of neo-realism, a philosophy that has
informed the opinions of such famous realpolitik
policymakers as Henry Kissinger and George Kennan.
Schell is a professor at Wesleyan University and the New
School and is the Harold Willens Peace Fellow at The Nation
Institute. He has been awarded numerous awards for his
foreign policy scholarship, including the MacArthur “Genius”
Grant for his writing on peace and security. Schell is
The Nation's peace and disarmament correspondent, and
the author of The Unconquerable World: Power,
Nonviolence, The Will of the People and A Hole in the
World, a compilation of his "Letter From Ground Zero"
columns, published by Nation Books.
This event will be held in Edmunds Ballroom (Smith Campus
Center, 170 E. Sixth Street). For more information visit
