[Sci-tech-public] Schedule of Events: November 6-10; Program for Workshop on Animal-Human Boundaries

[Debbie Meinbresse]

Please join us on Monday, November 6th, for the STS Colloquium:

WHAT IS THE ROLE OF STS IN PUBLIC POLICY?
TED POSTOL

Professor Postol provided the following abstract:
The work of the Science, Technology, and Global Security Working 
Group (STGS) is focused on global security problems associated with 
modern military applications of science and technology.  These 
security problems range from those as basic as the proliferation of 
nuclear weapons to the uses of science and technology in general 
applications of modern military power.  This talk will discuss a wide 
range of what at first sight might appear as narrow technical 
studies, but in fact address profound cultural, social, political, 
and economic issues that are connected to the core values of our society.

The talk will be held at 4:00 pm in E51-095.
