Final Deliberative Dialogue of the Fall Semester this Wednesday: America's International Relations

Join us for the last deliberative dialogue of the fall semester on November 16th, 11:45am-1pm, in the Main Dining Hall of the Brighton Campus. This is a unique opportunity to discuss American foreign policy and the country's obligations to the international community.

America's International Relations: What Obligations Do We Have to the International Community?

While there is disagreement over America's role in the world, the Russia-Ukraine war renewed our thinking about America's obligations to the international community. Join us as we deliberate over options that emphasize prioritizing domestic politics, focusing on global security issues, and the need to cooperate with other states and international organizations. 

11/16/22, 11:45am to 1pm, Main Dining Hall (Brighton Campus)
Though free and open to the public, the "America's International Relations" event requires advanced registration.

Deliberative dialogues are unique opportunities for collaborative thinking about pressing public issues. Because each dialogue takes the form of deliberation, attendees drive the conversation in small groups facilitated by trained moderators. Deliberation is unlike panel discussions or debates. It is highly participatory, egalitarian, and non-adversarial. The foundation of each dialogue is an issue guide. These guides offer an opportunity to critically explore an issue and discuss options to address the issue while also putting our values at the center of the conversation. If you want an advance copy of an issue guide or have questions, please email Joe Scanlon (jscanlon1@monroecc.edu).
