Event Description:

The international community has worked for decades to combat the
spread of nuclear weapons, but while some efforts succeeded in halting
or even rolling back that spread, many others have backfired with
dangerous consequences. As a result, those hoping to combat ongoing
proliferation are left asking, of all these imperfect options, which
policies work best, and do some actually do more harm than good? To
answer these questions, Petrovics uses original data from 1945-2012
and within-case analysis of Iran and North Korea to test the
effectiveness of common engagement strategies for combating nuclear
proliferation. She shows that often cooperative inducements are more
effective than coercive strategies, leading to nuclear reversal more
often and with a lower risk of inadvertently increasing proliferation
instead. But not all states are equally capable of combating
proliferation; cooperation is most effective when offered by a rival
power. However, this does not mean that great powers, or even
superpowers, are always more effective. In fact, when these states
instead choose to coerce they risk spurring greater proliferation.
This work provides important policy insights for ongoing proliferation
challenges today.

Pharos of Chaos

Event Date as Display String: Sunday, November 24, 2019, 7:00pm - 9:00pm Location: Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, 24 Quincy St., Cambridge URL: https://harvardfilmarchive.org/calendar/pharos-of-chaos-2019-11 Event Description: Wolf-Eckart Bühler was at work on a different film about the adventurous, seafaring Sterling Hayden (Der Havarist/The Shipwrecker) when he finally tracked down the man in person to make this frank, fascinating document. Bühler finds the semi-retired actor, war hero, occasional writer and itinerant sailor whiling away his days — frequently drunk or stoned — living on a barge in France. Bearing more than a passing resemblance to his character in Altman's "The Long Goodbye," the wild and weathered old man of the sea and out of time enjoys quoting his favorite literature and telling anecdotes until finally opening up about his alcoholism, his loneliness, his "creative impotency," and his deepest ...

HILR Intersession: Mollie Crawford-Volk: Velazquez' "Las Meninas" and its Modern Progeny

Event Date as Display String: Tuesday, January 21, 2020, 10:00am - 12:00pm Location: HILR, 34 Concord Avenue, Cambridge 02138 URL: http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/harvard-events/events-calendar/?trumbaEmbed=view%3Devent%26eventid%3D141501611 Event Description: Diego Velazquez' magisterial late work, "Las Meninas," created in 1656 near the end of his life, is universally recognized now as one of the greatest paintings in the history of western culture. Its scale, technical virtuosity, complex subject, and inclusion of the only uncontested self-portrait of the Spanish artist we have contributed decisively to its special stature. But this stature has been enormously enhanced by the number and quality of responses to the painting made by important later artists, a phenomenon that continues up to the present. Very few, if any, paintings in western art have inspired such an illustrious progeny. UID: http://uid.trumba.com/event/141501611 ...
