Contemporary Issues in World Historical Perspective
How does the past relate to the present? Join us as we explore the enduring questions that accompany all historical inquiry - how does perspective change when you put contemporary issues and problems in a historical context?
Every second Thursday of the month, historian Robert Strayer will present a lecture, followed by discussion, on a different global issue.
Thursday • January 9th
7:00-8:30pm
Downtown Library • 224 Church St.
Our theme for Thursday, January 9th will be Globalization. By the 1990's, globalization had become a buzzword, but just how novel was this global entanglement? Join us as we learn about how globalization today is both different from, and similar to, global empires of the past.
