Join Professor Mai’a K. Davis Cross and distinguished public policy thought leaders Dr. Esther Brimmer (Council for Foreign Relations), Dr. Divyansh Kaushik (Federation of American Scientists), and Gloriela Iguina-Colon (C40 Cities) for an engaging conversation about the public policy implications of Prof. Cross’s new book, International Cooperation Against All Odds: The Ultrasocial World. Moderated by Professor Tracy Corley, this author’s interview and critical discussion of the book recasts how we understand the power of possibility and breakthroughs in international cooperation and policy making.
Co-sponsored by Northeastern University’s Center for International Affairs and World Cultures and the College of Social Science and Humanities, this event at our Arlington, Virginia, campus will explore how the human evolutionary predisposition to be “ultrasocial” as a species allows political ideas to succeed, transform, manipulate, and inspire at local, national, and global scales, transforming institutions and policies that impact us all.
This event is co-sponsored by the Center for International Affairs and World Cultures at Northeastern University, which seeks to enrich and support scholarship and timely analysis on the importance of international cooperation, empathy, and mutual understanding in solving major global challenges.
