Overview:
Join us for this special event with Vietnam Veteran and noted scholar Dr. Andrew Bacevich. In this lecture, he will describe the national security consensus that has informed US policy since World War II, and why this consensus persists. He will make the case that the consensus has become antithetical to the nation's well-being and should be abandoned. Following this event, Dr. Bacevich will give a free lecture entitled “The Enduring Relevance of the Wisconsin School: What William Appleman Williams Got Right and Where He Went Wrong” as part of the Wisconsin Book Festival at the Overture Center beginning at 5:30pm.
