National Security in the New Era: National Security Working Group

Thirteen scholars have been working together to seed new academic research and to build a community of scholars and policymakers focused on addressing questions central to national security strategy-making.

The National Security in the New Era conference will build on this work by generating new questions for academic research while enlarging the community to include scholars from a range of disciplines and across generations.
