SUMMARY:American Democracy in the Internet Age
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe conference will explore how internet technologies and digital public spaces are shaping norms of citizenship and popular ideas about government. What does it mean for our republic to have citizens formed by and beholden to educational\, informational\, and social apparatuses owned by multinational corporations? To what extent does the centralization of data and identity information (and its sharing with the state) constitute a threat to our rule-of-law traditions? How are our ideas about each other\, our government\, and our democracy changing in light of radically new ways of relating and communicating with each other? What does the Internet mean for our Republic? \nThe conference will be hosted from 10a-4p at the National Press Club\, with morning and afternoon panels and L.M. Sacasas as a luncheon keynote speaker. One panel will focus on how digital public spaces are re-shaping norms of citizenship\, and one panel will focus on the changing relationship between the citizen and the state. \nIntroduction: 10 – 10:15a \nSociety Panel: 10:15a – 12p\n(Burton\, Keiper\, Barba-Kay) \nLunch & Keynote: 12:30 – 2p \nCitizenship Panel: 2:15 – 3:45p\n(Lehman\, Rinehart\, Holland Michel) \nConclusion: 3:45 – 4p \nCoffee and lunch will be served. \nRSVP for the conference now.\n\n\n\nAmerican Democracy in the Internet Age\n* indicates required\nEmail Address *\n\n\nSalutation \n\nFirst Name *\n\n\nLast Name *\n\n\nAffiliation \n\n\nAddress \n\nAddress Line 2\n\nCity\n\nState/Province/Region\n\nPostal / Zip Code\n\nCountry\nUSAAaland IslandsAfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntigua And BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire\, Saint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCambodiaCameroonCanadaCape VerdeCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandColombiaComorosCongoCook IslandsCosta RicaCote D’IvoireCroatiaCubaCuracaoCyprusCzech RepublicDemocratic Republic of the CongoDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuyanaHaitiHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJersey (Channel Islands)JordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People’s Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacauMacedoniaMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMoldova\, Republic ofMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNepalNetherlandsNetherlands AntillesNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth KoreaNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestinePanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalQatarRepublic of KosovoReunionRomaniaRussiaRwandaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoa (Independent)San MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth KoreaSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan Mayen IslandsSwazilandSwedenSwitzerlandSyriaTaiwanTajikistanTanzaniaThailandTimor-LesteTogoTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkeyTurkmenistanTurks & Caicos IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVatican City State (Holy See)VenezuelaVietnamVirgin Islands (British)Virgin Islands (U.S.)Western SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabwe\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n– – – \nNOTE: This form will only be used for the purpose of collecting RSVPs for this event.

SUMMARY:Two Concepts of Liberty: Ideology\, the Constitution\, and the American Foreign Policy Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Brendan Rittenhouse Green\, University of Cincinnati\, CSS Visiting Fellow \n  \nThe United States underwent a dramatic change in its foreign policy orientation from the dawn of the 20th century to its closing. Green argues that one underappreciated driver of America’s foreign policy revolution was a change in the political philosophy of the elites who ran it. \nThe founding generation conceived of liberty\, in Isaiah Berlin’s terms\, as a negative concept: freedom from constraint. They sought to protect the liberty of the American people through the institutional devices of the constitution\, and on the whole\, both the founding document and the ideological goals that underlay it were a subject of elite consensus in the decades following the civil war. But as industrialization took hold\, a new positive concept of liberty became popular in elite circles: freedom as the capacity to achieve valued goals. Adherents to this view saw the constitution’s strictures as unnecessary fetters on the role of a liberty promoting state. \nThis ideological dispute had foreign policy consequences. Negative liberals saw overseas commitments as threats to liberty at home\, with the potential to lead to higher taxes\, stronger bureaucracies\, centralized management of the economy\, conscription\, and ultimately\, the casualties of war. Positive liberals saw foreign commitments as a means of shaping political outcomes abroad analogous to how the state could promote freedom at home\, leading them to pursue liberal world order. The different approaches of Woodrow Wilson and the Interwar Republicans to the problems of European politics illustrate their fundamental ideological differences. \nNegative liberty began to wither away among American elites after the Second World War\, and remains in eclipse today. It is no accident that the liberal world order has become the central preoccupation of the American foreign policy class. The history of attitudes towards liberty and the American constitution has much to tell us about the foundations of contemporary American foreign policy\, as well as the potential sources of change.

SUMMARY:No Place for Russia? A Conversation with William Hill
DESCRIPTION:William Hill\, Wilson Center \n  \nWhy has the optimistic vision of a “Europe whole and free” after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 given way to disillusionment\, bitterness\, and renewed hostility between Russia and the West? In his recent book\, No Place for Russia\, diplomat and scholar William Hill shows in excruciating detail how historical happenstance and geopolitical maneuvering between Russia\, the United States\, and the EU led to a largely unintended marginalization of Russia and an increasingly assertive Russian foreign policy. Join William Hill and CSS’s Jon Askonas for a conversation about the book\, European security\, and Russian activity in the West from the invasion of Crimea to the attempted assassination of Sergei Skripal. \nPizza will be served. \n

SUMMARY:American Primacy in Crisis: Historical Origins and Current Pressures
DESCRIPTION:Stephen Wertheim\, Visiting Assistant Professor\, Columbia University\, CSS Visiting Fellow\nLoren DeJonge Schulman\, Deputy Director of Studies and the Leon E. Panetta Senior Fellow\, CNAS\nModerated by Justin Logan\, CSS \n\n\n\n\nAlthough some scholars claim that U.S. military primacy began in the 1990s\, Stephen Wertheim argues that its origins lie further back\, to the early years of World War II. In 1940 and 1941\, American officials and intellectuals decided that the United States should attain political-military supremacy and maintain it indefinitely. Decades later\, after the Cold War ended\, primacy endured\, having been conceived from the start as a project to secure “world order\,” not just to counter a specific enemy.\n\nAt the same time\, primacy was adopted out of fear that otherwise world order might be subverted by a totalitarian alternative. Does that rationale still apply today\, a quarter-century after the collapse of communism? Could China and/or Russia justify a revived grand strategy of global primacy? Or does primacy face a crisis of legitimacy today because it lacks a discernible rationale\, creating an opening for a more restrained replacement?

SUMMARY:NATO at 70: Vital\, Relevant\, or Obsolete?
DESCRIPTION:Defense Priorities and Catholic University’s Center for the Study of Statesmanship (CSS) are delighted to invite you to “NATO at 70: Vital\, Relevant\, or Obsolete?\,” a panel discussion on the future of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. As NATO celebrates its 70th birthday next week\, the alliance faces renewed questions about its purpose\, cohesion\, and future. President Trump’s antipathy toward NATO is well-documented. Yet even friends of the alliance acknowledge that NATO’s capabilities and will are increasingly in question. Last week brought news that Germany\, one of the wealthiest and most important NATO members\, has chosen not to spend even a paltry 1.5% of GDP on defense in the years to come. Some members contribute even less. And when put to the test in combat in Afghanistan and Libya\, NATO performed unevenly\, at best. \nIs NATO’s original purpose of keeping “the Soviets out\, the Americans in\, and the Germans down” still relevant\, nearly thirty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall? What are America’s vital national interests in Europe? Does America’s current role in the alliance enhance or retard European collective security? \nCSS and Defense Priorities have assembled a dynamic group of experts to discuss these issues immediately after NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg’s address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday: \nGil Barndollar is the Military Fellow-in-Residence at the Center for the Study of Statesmanship. \nBen Friedman is Policy Director for Defense Priorities. \nCOL (Ret.) Douglas MacGregor\, USA\, is a decorated combat veteran\, the author of five books\, and a frequent commentator on national security issues. \nThomas Wright\, Director of the Center on the United States and Europe\, Brookings Institution. \nModerator: Justin Logan is a Research Associate and the Director of Programs at the Center for the Study of Statesmanship. \nThe event will be held April 3\, from 1 – 3 pm\, in Ballroom A at the Reserve Officers Association of America\, directly across the street from the Hart Senate Office Building. We hope you can join us.

SUMMARY:Catholicism and U.S. Foreign Policy: Questions\, and Some Answers
DESCRIPTION:Michael Desch\, Director\, Notre Dame International Security Center\nModerated by Justin Logan\, CSS \nThe United States plays a unique role in international affairs. U.S. policymakers have generally supported an ambitious foreign policy with global implications. Unlike smaller nations\, Washington has a broad range of policy options. These decisions can have great impact on both American servicemembers\, as in the case of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan\, for example\, as well as on overseas populations. \nAmerican Catholics have disagreed among themselves on many of these issues. In truth\, there are many difficult questions to think about when it comes to any aspect of American foreign policy. \nHow should Catholics view the promise and pitfalls inherent in contemporary U.S. foreign policy? How should traditional virtues like restraint and moderation influence American policymakers? Can Catholic thinking help illuminate not what we think\, but how we think about these difficult issues?

SUMMARY:"The Middle East Through Christian Eyes" Film Series: “The Insult” – Lebanon
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the second in a series of film screenings focused on the plight of Christian communities in the Middle East. This event features “The Insult”: In today’s Beirut\, an insult blown out of proportion finds Toni\, a Lebanese Christian\, and Yasser\, a Palestinian refugee\, in court.
