Waves of refugees, exiles, troops, and war workers from overseas meant that the population of Britain reached unprecedented levels of diversity during WWII. Once the war was over, this multi-national, multi-ethnic wartime population often remained, but their history has been largely forgotten. As History Revealed commented: “Wendy Webster is on a mission to make us remember.”

Patching the Liberal World Order: How Can International Cooperation Pwn Emerging Cyber Challenges

Subtitle: 
Jean Monnet Center of Excellence Workshop
Presenter: 
Michael Colaresi, Political Science and various
Event Status: 
As Scheduled
Date: 
Thu, 07/19/2018 (All day) to Fri, 07/20/2018 (All day)

The computing and digital revolutions have created new tools and capabilities that are challenging the liberal world order. If the Cold War was an era of static state superpowers, modern computing gives not only developed states but even a moderately trained rebel group their own superpowers: to teleport their presence around the globe, move vast sums of money instantly, and make evidence vanish. From Wikileaks to the hacking of elections, headlines across the democratic world have highlighted transnational cyber-enabled crime, violence and polarization.
