SUMMARY:A New Cold War? America\, China\, and Russia after the Ukraine War
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Dole Institute to hear Professors Ross and Zhang discuss the future of geopolitics after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Is a long-term alignment between Russia and China now inevitable? Is the U.S.-dominated liberal international order giving away to a U.S.-China bipolar order? Should the U.S. work with allies to contain China in the same way it has been doing with sanctions on Russia? What are Ukraine’s lessons for Taiwan?  \nRobert S. Ross is Professor of Political Science at Boston College and Associate\, John King Fairbank Center for East Asian Research\, Harvard University.  He has been a Visiting Scholar at the Institute for Security Studies\, Peking University\, a Fulbright Professor at the Chinese Foreign Affairs College\, and a Visiting Senior Fellow at the Institute of International Strategic Studies\, Qinghua University.

Dr. Zhang has been the recipient of various grants and awards\, including a Fulbright U.S. Student Grant\, the Minerva Research Initiative DECUR Partnership\, the Smith Richardson Foundation World Politics and Statecraft Fellowship\, and the University of California Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation Herb York Dissertation Fellowship. \nThe Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics is dedicated to promoting political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bipartisan\, philosophically balanced manner. It is located on KU’s West Campus and houses the Dole Archive and Special Collections. Through its robust public programming\, congressional archive\, and museum\, the Dole Institute strives to celebrate public service and the legacies of US Senators Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole. \nThis program is presented in partnership with the KU’s Department of Political Science and the Center for Russian\, Eastern European\, and Eurasian Studies (CREES).

SUMMARY:Fort Leavenworth: Gates Brown: “Implications of the Korean War on US Policy”
DESCRIPTION:The Korean War\, often described as the Forgotten War\, was foundational to the creation of the national defense posture that the United States maintained throughout the Cold War. After World War II\, the Truman administration quickly demobilized much of the U.S. military in an effort to return to normalcy and get the United States economy on a peacetime footing. This was similar to previous post-war periods in the United States\, where the large military force quickly returned to its peacetime form\, which was a fraction of the wartime size. This talk will discuss the implications of the Korean War both domestically and internationally. To meet this conflict\, the Truman administration restarted conscription to meet the force needs to fight the war and imposed domestic economic controls\, although to a lesser degree than those used in World War II. Internationally\, the Korean War served as a catalyst for the increase of the US military contribution to the recently created North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It also established the military character of the Cold War\, that the main kinetic aspects of the conflict between the Soviet Union and the United States would be in proxy wars while the nuclear deterrent maintained a tense status quo between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. \nGates Brown is currently an associate professor in the Department of Military History at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College. He received his PhD from the University of Kansas. His research interests include the early Cold War and the evolution of U.S. nuclear strategy in the late 1940s and 1950s.

SUMMARY:President Juan Manuel Santos
DESCRIPTION:The Dole Institute of Politics will honor Juan Manuel Santos\, former President of Colombia with the 2022 Dole Leadership Prize. \nThe Dole Leadership Prize is a bipartisan award presented annually to an individual who demonstrates the importance of involvement in political and civic affairs. Santos was identified for recognition by the late Senator Bob Dole in honor of his successful efforts to bring peace to Colombia. \n“We are honored to welcome President Santos back to the Dole Institute to present him with the 2022 Dole Leadership Prize\,” said Dole Institute director Audrey Coleman. The President’s 2012 visit marked the first time the Dole Institute hosted a sitting head of state. \nSantos graduated from the University of Kansas with a degree in Economics and Administration and completed post-graduate studies at the London School of Economics and Harvard University. \nHe served two terms as President of Colombia from 2010-2018\, with one of the cornerstones of his administration being his work on a peace process with FARC\, the Colombian guerilla organization. As a result of his commitment to achieve peace in Colombia\, he was the sole recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2016 for “his resolute efforts to bring the country’s more than 50-year-long civil war to an end\,” according to the Norwegian Nobel Committee. \nThe program will take place at the Dole Institute of Politics at 7 p.m. on September 20. A book sale and signing will take place after the program. Attendees can purchase the English translation of Santos’ book\, The Battle for Peace: The Long Road to Ending a War with the World’s Oldest Guerrilla Army\, published by the University Press of Kansas.

SUMMARY:Fort Leavenworth: Angela Riotto and Derek Mallett: “Prisoners of War as Military Intelligence in the Civil War and World War 2"
DESCRIPTION:During the Second World War\, the US military interrogated over 3\,000 German Prisoners of War at a secret facility at Fort Hunt\, Virginia.

His research interests include the Second World War\, prisoners of war\, military intelligence\, war and public memory\, and national security. \nAngela Riotto received her Ph.D. from the University of Akron. Her research examines the ways in which both U.S. and Confederate former prisoners of war discussed their captivity between 1861 and 1930. She currently teaches with the Department of Military History at the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College as an Assistant Professor.

SUMMARY:Fort Leavenworth: Ethan Rafuse: “Hybrid War in the Shenandoah in 1864”
DESCRIPTION:Defense analysts have identified the emergence of “hybrid warfare” as a compelling threat to American national security and declared it one of the more notable developments of the first decade of the 21st century. Of course\, while the label may be new\, hybrid warfare is not new in the human experience. This talk will discuss Union operations in the Shenandoah Valley in 1864\, using it as a case study of a specific campaign in the Civil War where both conventional and unconventional operations were significant factors. It examines Sheridan’s efforts\, the particular dynamics and challenges he confronted\, and the factors that enabled him to prevail. \n

SUMMARY:Kennan and Nitze: Early Cold War Theorists
DESCRIPTION:Ft. Leavenworth: Kennan and Nitze: Early Cold War Theorists\nGates Brown and Dave Mills\nDecember 2\, 2021 | 3 p.m. \nBrown and Mills will discuss two of the most influential Cold War theoriest: George Kennan and Paul Nitze\, who were exact opposites in strategy and outlook. Kennan was a realist who believed the U.S. should eliminate its arsenal of nuclear weapons. His guiding philosophy was that an individual or a nation that desired peace should act peacefully\, although his opinions on dealing with the U.S.S.R. ironically led to the most aggressive foreign policy in American history. Nitze was a hawk who advocated a more assertive role in foreign affairs\, believing that if a nation desired peace\, it should prepare for war. More than any other American\, Nitze was responsible for the arms race between the two superpowers throughout the Cold War. \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series is an annual roster of lectures focusing on significant historical events\, usually with an emphasis on military history. Each lecture is presented by faculty from the United States Army Command and General Staff College in Ft. Leavenworth\, Kansas. Established by General William Tecumseh Sherman in 1881\, the CGSC is the graduate college for U.S. Army and sister service officers. The esteemed faculty and guests of the CGSC provide unique and captivating insights into the history of military conflict from the ancient to the modern ages at the Dole Institute of Politics. \nThe Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics is dedicated to promoting political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bipartisan\, philosophically balanced manner. It is located on KU’s West Campus and houses the Dole Archive and Special Collections. Through its robust public programming\, congressional archive and museum\, the Dole Institute strives to celebrate public service and the legacies of U.S. Senators Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole.

SUMMARY:THE COUNSELORS | Resolved: Cash bail will not be required for individuals who are not a flight risk or dangerous
DESCRIPTION:On Nov. 17\, the Dole Institute of Politics will debut The Counselors\, an engaging series featuring two advocates arguing either side of an important national issue. In a cross between a courtroom trial and a debate\, the two counselors will present their opposing arguments and call two expert witnesses each to help build their case. \nFocusing on criminal justice reform\, the theme for our November program is “Resolved: Cash bail will not be required for individuals who are not a flight risk or dangerous.” \nThe counselors for “Resolved” will be Edward C. Duckers\, partner at Stoel Rives LLP and head of the firm’s Litigation Practice\, and Pedro L. Irigonegaray\, attorney and partner at Irigonegaray\, Turney\, & Revenaugh. \nToday in the United States\, six out of every 10 people in jail are currently awaiting trial without having actually been convicted of a crime. In 2018\, the bipartisan FIRST STEP Act was signed into law\, creating legislation that would improve fairness in sentencing of federal crimes\, reduce recidivism and promote public safety. \nAt a time when a range of experts are calling for additional criminal justice reform\, The Counselors fall program aims to educate on both sides of the argument. \nJoin us 6-8 p.m. on Wednesday\, Nov. 17\, for the inaugural event followed by an open house reception. \nThe Counselors series is consistent with the mission of the Dole Institute of Politics – to promote political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bi-partisan\, balanced manner – and is made possible through a grant from the Koch Family Foundation. \nThis program is cosponsored by KU Debate and the University of Kansas School of Law.

SUMMARY:Vo Nguyen Giap and Le Duan: Vietnam’s Victors
DESCRIPTION:Ft. Leavenworth: Vo Nguyen Giap and Le Duan: Vietnam’s Victors\nMartin Clemis\nNovember 4\, 2021 | 3 p.m. \nBetween 1945 and 1975\, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam fought and won two major conflicts against tremendous odds: one against France and the other against the U.S. and its South Vietnamese ally. The architects of these incredible victories were General Vo Nguyen Giap\, the commander of the North Vietnamese Army\, and Le Duan\, the General Secretary of the Vietnam Worker’s Party. Although they both utilized a hybrid politico-military approach that synthesized conventional war\, guerrilla warfare\, and mass politics\, they each pursued a unique variation of communist revolutionary warfare. In this lecture\, Clemis will discuss how these men and their theories of war carried the communists to victory in Vietnam\, and in doing so\, brought the most far reaching and consequential conflict of the Cold War to a conclusion. \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series is an annual roster of lectures focusing on significant historical events\, usually with an emphasis on military history. Each lecture is presented by faculty from the United States Army Command and General Staff College in Ft. Leavenworth\, Kansas. Established by General William Tecumseh Sherman in 1881\, the CGSC is the graduate college for U.S. Army and sister service officers. The esteemed faculty and guests of the CGSC provide unique and captivating insights into the history of military conflict from the ancient to the modern ages at the Dole Institute of Politics. \nThe Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics is dedicated to promoting political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bipartisan\, philosophically balanced manner. It is located on KU’s West Campus and houses the Dole Archive and Special Collections. Through its robust public programming\, congressional archive and museum\, the Dole Institute strives to celebrate public service and the legacies of U.S. Senators Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole.

SUMMARY:A Conversation on Race Part IV: The Extraordinary Life of Cyclist Major Taylor\, America’s First Black Sports Hero
DESCRIPTION:Investigative political reporter and author Michael Kranish will join us for our fourth installment of our A Conversation on Race series. He will discuss the life\, tribulations\, and career of Major Taylor\, the first American-born Black world champion in any sport\, fifty years before Jackie Robinson became a Major League baseball player. Kranish spent years collecting thousands of articles written about Taylor for his book\, “The World’s Fastest Man: The Extraordinary Life of Cyclist Major Taylor\, America’s First Black Sports Hero\,” in which he tells the story of how Taylor overcame insurmountable odds to become a world-class athlete during the Jim Crow era. Taylor’s trailblazing accomplishments had widespread impact across society and are relevant to conversations we are having about African American athletes today. \nThis program includes a book sale and signing with the author.
