CISS Global Forum: Peace and Security under Uncertainty

Apr 27, 2017

Uncertainty, like insecurity, is as much a subjective state of mind as it is an objective condition of reality, raising new and troubling questions for those trying to assess its global impact. Are uncertainty, volatility and precarity actually on the rise? Do repeated efforts to measure, record and represent uncertainty only amplify the condition? Is uncertainty the result of a single person or state, or more of a global trend in politics and the media? Who benefits from and who is harmed by the spread of uncertainty? A diverse group of leading international security scholars address the topic from their own unique perspectives and research areas. - Professor Rita Abrahamsen, University of Ottawa - Professor Thomas Biersteker, Graduate Institute of Geneva - Professor Lene Hansen, University of Copenhagem - Professor Michael Williams, University of Ottawa Presented by Sydney Ideas on 27 April 2017: http://sydney.edu.au/sydney_ideas/lectures/2017/CISS_global_forum_2017.shtml
