SUMMARY:The End of Globalization?
DESCRIPTION:Our Oct. 7 Great Decisions Lecture Series will ask the question if we are at the end of globalization. With David Dollar of Brookings. \nAbout this event\nA recent survey of nearly 20\,000 people in 25 countries reveals mixed enthusiasm for international trade and the globalization of goods and services\, with slightly less than half of those surveyed agreeing that globalization is a net-positive for their country. \nWith an uptick in protectionist trade rhetoric and reconsideration of globally integrated networks of goods and services\, what do the trends and forecasts indicate about the future of globalization? Is globalization really at an end\, or is it in need of a refresh? \nDavid Dollar\, noted economist and senior fellow in the John L. Thornton China Center at the Brookings Institution\, will offer his insights in this virtual discussion jointly presented by the US Heartland China Association and the International Relations Council. \n  \nRegister Today.\nOctober 7th\, 2021\n6:30 – 7:30 p.m. CT

SUMMARY:Nuancing National Security
DESCRIPTION:A central mandate of any national government is national security\, but the responsibility involves much more than traditional military defense capabilities. Today\, while balancing military and diplomacy priorities\, national governments assess and combat threats in cyberspace and outer space\, water supplies and power grids\, food production and energy chains. In this six-part virtual series\, the International Relations Council will take a deep dive into the national security arena\, offering historical context and global perspective for core dimensions of national security and exploring the risks\, priorities\, and tactics on the radar of U.S. security policy. \nAbout the Speaker \nDr. Ken Burton is currently the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) Coordinator and APHIS lead for USDA NBAF in Manhattan\, KS. \nDr. Burton received his Bachelor of Science in biology and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees from Kansas State University.

He was principle investigator and co-principle investigator on projects involving transboundary animal disease (TAD) response planning\, training\, and education at the national\, state and local levels. \nBurton was also Director of Project Coordination for the Biosecurity Research Institute (BRI) at K-State.
