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.

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.

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.

SUMMARY:Pre-World War I French Military Doctrine and its Consequences
DESCRIPTION:Ft. Leavenworth: Pre-World War I French Military Doctrine and its Consequences\nRichard Faulkner\nOctober 7\, 2021 | 3 p.m. \nIn the years prior to World War I\, the French military wrestled with how to defend itself against a larger\, more industrialized foe. Like the Great War’s other major combatants\, the French pre-war doctrine proved to be ill-suited to meet the realities of the 1914 battlefield. This lecture will examine the factors that influenced the French Army’s pre-war doctrine\, how the army envisioned fighting “the next great war\,” and how it adapted its tactical strategy from 1915 to 1918\, after its peacetime doctrine failed to secure France’s hope for victory in 1914. \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.

In the digital age\, do modern spies look more like Bond’s geeky\, gadget-obsessed quartermaster “Q” than Bond himself? Dole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes former Chief of the Directorate of Digital Innovations Hiring for the CIA Roynda Hartsfield\, who will discuss what the CIA and the intelligence community at large is looking for in a 21st century spy. \nAnother misconception that lingers in the minds of the public is that intelligence operatives are always agents of a government\, or “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.” In reality\, the intelligence industrial complex has ballooned from $27 billion annually in 2001 to $86 billion today. Hartsfield and Marks will explore what this shift in the terrain means\, the differences and similarities between what the public and private sectors look for when hiring new operatives\, and what types of individuals should apply. \nThis discussion group is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to get world-class advice and information about pursuing a career in this rapidly growing industry. It is also a chance to dispel the fictions around what spies in our age look like\, and perhaps for attendees to see themselves in a field they had previously relegated to “spies” like James Bond. \nRoynda “Roy” Hartsfield is a recently retired senior Central intelligence Agency officer and formerly Chief of the Directorate of Digital Innovations Hiring. Roy has spent most of her career overseas focused on operational issues around the globe. She currently heads Talent Acquisition for Excel Technologies and is President of PTG Consulting focused on bringing more diversity and inclusion to STEM. \n  \n  \nSpeaking Truth to Power in the Cyber Age?\n2/19/2020 \n \nE.C.H.E.L.O.N.\nP.R.I.S.M.\nM.Y.S.T.I.C. \nThese infamous mass surveillance programs not only dominated many a conspiracy-theorist blog\, but also began shifting public understanding of intelligence gathering in the age of the internet. As the role of computers rose\, the role of human beings seemed to diminish. The practical truth lies somewhere between the Rosenbergs and Facebook. Dole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes the Honorable Randall M. Fort\, former assistant secretary of state for Intelligence and Research\, as they delve into this new world where the purposes of computers and humans in intelligence gathering have shifted in unprecedented ways. \nFort is an expert on the emergence of artificial intelligence and other technological tools used in data mining and processing. In this discussion\, he and Marks will explore how these emergent technologies change the intelligence game\, but also how integral humans remain to the overall process. To that point\, they will discuss how to utilize personal networks to collect information without competing with senior executives. Fort and Marks will serve as guides through a rapidly shifting landscape in which the technologically adept person may have the career advantage. \nRandall M. Fort is director of Corporate Programs Security for Raytheon. He joined the Engineering\, Technology and Mission Assurance leadership team in July 2009. Prior to Raytheon\, Fort was employed at the U.S. State Department as the assistant secretary of state for Intelligence and Research\, from 2006 to 2009. He managed the production and dissemination of all-source intelligence analysis for the secretary of state and other senior policymakers. Fort headed the department’s Cyber Policy Group and the Bureau of Intelligence and Research— a member of the U.S. intelligence community. \nBefore his U.S. State Department appointment\, Fort was director of Global Security for Goldman Sachs\, from 1996 to 2006\, where he was responsible for all aspects of physical security risk management\, including\ninvestigations\, travel safety\, executive protection\, risk analysis\, access control\, perimeter protection and security technology. He also served as chief of staff to the president and co-chief operating officer of the firm. From 1993 to 1996\, Fort was director of Special Projects at TRW\, Inc. for two of the corporation’s Space and Defense operating groups. \nHe served as the deputy assistant secretary for Functional Analysis and Research in the Bureau of Intelligence and Research at the U.S. Department of State from 1989 to 1993. He was also the special assistant to the secretary for National Security and director of the Office of Intelligence Support at the U.S. Department of the Treasury from 1987 to 1989. Prior to moving to Treasury\, he served as a professional staff member\, first as assistant director and subsequently as deputy executive director\, of the President’s Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board at the White House from 1982 to 1987. \n  \n  \nThe Lawless Cyber Frontier\n2/26/2020 \n \nNineteenth century southwestern America lit up movie and television screens and imaginations from the earliest talkies to the latest blockbusters. The lawless West and the rugged cowboy protecting the innocent are archetypes embedded in the American psyche. Westerns have\, with a few exceptions\, grossly romanticized a terrifying time for the men\, women\, and children pushing the frontier ever westward with little or no protection. The frontier a century and a half later has no oceans to arrest its forward progress\, and for many\, the anarchy of cyberspace has wrought havoc on their lives with few white-hat wearing lawmen to rescue them. \nDole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes Stephanie Pell\, Assistant Professor and Cyber Ethics Fellow at West Point’s Army Cyber Institute\, to a discussion of bringing the rule of law to a lawless frontier. Pell stands out as an expert on the existing laws of the internet\, and a leader in creating new ones\, particularly at the international level. As countries and companies weaponize information on a global scale\, Pell and Marks will provide vital insight into how we survive the new Wild Wild West. \nStephanie Pell is an Assistant Professor and Cyber Ethics Fellow at West Point’s Army Cyber Institute (ACI)\, with a joint appointment to the Department of English and Philosophy. Pell is also an Affiliate Scholar at the Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School. \nShe writes about cybersecurity\, privacy\, surveillance\, cyber ethics\, and national security law and policy. Pell’s work has been published in several law journals\, including the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology\, the Berkeley Technology Law Journal\, the Yale Journal of Law and Technology\, and the Connecticut Law Review\, as well as in the popular magazine Wired. Prior to joining West Point’s faculty\, Pell served as Majority Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee\, serving as lead counsel on Electronic Communications Privacy Act reform and PATRIOT Act reauthorization during the 111th Congress. Pell was also a federal prosecutor for over fourteen years\, working as a Senior Counsel to the U. S. Deputy Attorney General\, as a Counsel to the U.S. Assistant Attorney General of the National Security Division\, and as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida. She was a lead prosecutor in U.S. v. Jose Padilla\, in which in which American citizen was detained as an enemy combatant prior to criminal indictment\, trial\, and conviction on various terrorism charges\, for which she received the U.S. Attorney General’s Exceptional Service Award\, and \nin U.S. v. Conor Claxton\, a court case involving IRA operatives who purchased weapons in South Florida and smuggled them into Belfast\, Northern Ireland during peace process negotiations. \n  \n  \nIn Home\, at Home and Abroad – How Intelligence Is Made and Used in the 21st Century\n4/1/2020 \n \nThe word “spy” almost drips with connotations. From James Bond to Spy vs. Spy to Black Widow\, pop culture has no end of colorful characters who claim spying as their profession. One thing they all have in common is they work for a government. In the post-9/11 world\, this changed\, as the intelligence industry more than tripled in value. Spies much more frequently work for private firms. The burgeoning industry saw public and private organizations casting much larger nets and scooping up oceans of data. The ability to sort through so much information remains a key struggle. \nDole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes Dr. Mark M. Lowenthal\, former Assistant Director of Central Intelligence for Analysis & Production and former Vice Chairman for Evaluation on the National Intelligence Council\, to the Dole Institute for a fascinating study of how intelligence is gathered\, made\, and used in an era where information flows more like Niagara Falls than a faucet. Lowenthal has run organizations both in government and the private sector\, bringing a balanced perspective to a field that governments no longer monopolize. Join Marks and Lowenthal as they examine an industry that has radically transformed in the last 20 years and forever changed the definition of a “spy.” \nDr. Mark M. Lowenthal\, an internationally recognized expert on intelligence\, is President Emeritus of the Intelligence & Security Academy\, LLC\, a national security education\, training and consulting company. From 2002-2005\, Dr. Lowenthal served as the Assistant Director of Central Intelligence for Analysis & Production and also as the Vice Chairman for Evaluation on the National Intelligence Council. Prior to these duties\, he served as Counselor to the Director of Central Intelligence. Dr. Lowenthal was the Staff Director of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence in the 104th Congress (1995-97)\, where he directed the committee’s study on the future of the Intelligence Community\, IC21: The Intelligence Community in the 21st Century. He also served in the State Department’s Bureau of Intelligence and Research (INR)\, as both an office director and a Deputy Assistant Secretary of State\, and has been the Senior Specialist in U.S. Foreign Policy at the Congressional Research Service\, Library of Congress. \nDr. Lowenthal has written extensively on intelligence and national security issues\, including ten books and over 100 articles or studies. He published The Future of Intelligence. His textbook\, Intelligence: From Secrets to Policy\, has become the standard college and graduate school textbook on the subject. Dr. Lowenthal is a frequent public commentator on intelligence issues. \nHe is on the adjunct faculty of the Johns Hopkins University and Sciences Po in Paris (Institut d’études politiques de Paris)\, and is a Visiting Professor at the Norway Defence Intelligence School (NORDIS). He was an adjunct for 14 years at Columbia University. He is the Executive Director of the International Association for Intelligence Education and a Chairman Emeritus of the Intelligence Committee for AFCEA. He is currently a member of the Intelligence Community Studies Board and the FBI Intelligence Analysts Association. \nIn 2005\, Dr. Lowenthal was awarded the National Intelligence Distinguished Service Medal\, the Intelligence Community’s highest award. In 2006\, he received AFCEA’s Distinguished Service Award for service to the Intelligence Community. In 1988\, Dr. Lowenthal was the Grand Champion on “Jeopardy!\,” the television quiz show. \n  \n  \nGhost in the Machine: Being a Reporter in the Age of Total Information\n4/8/2020 \n \nOn June 1\, 1980\, the Cable News Network launched\, creating the first 24-hour news channel. It marked the first major departure from the decades-old model of television news broadcast twice a day. Then the internet swept the world\, splintering not only televised news but print and radio as well. In the span of only three decades\, the entire landscape of journalism changed. For most\, we only see the external changes\, the increasing need to curate our sources of information from an ever-increasing number of choices\, but what is it like for the people who work in the field? \nDole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes his guest Jenna McLaughlin\, national security and investigations reporter for Yahoo News. McLaughlin will share her experiences in working in a world-class non-traditional news agency\, how she deals with the demands to constantly gather information for the 24/7 news cycle. She will also discuss how she balances the need to get the information out fast and the need to get it right. \nJenna McLaughlin is a national security and investigations reporter for Yahoo News\, where she focuses on the intelligence community\, foreign policy\, and other issues. McLaughlin previously covered intelligence and national security for CNN\, Foreign Policy Magazine\, The Intercept\, and Mother Jones Magazine\, following her graduation from Johns Hopkins University in 2014. \n  \n  \nThe Death of 20th Century Power Structures and Adapting to the Birth of the 21st Century World\n4/15/2020 \n \nFew inventions so radically re-shaped the world as the internet did in the 1990s. The pillars of society\, economics\, information\, communication and government shook\, cracked\, and some even crumbled\, perhaps none so dramatically as the political structures that supported and ordered the world. As of yet\, no new framework has emerged to replace the old. Even the foundational idea of the nation-state as a political concept and the basis for the modern definition of a country threatens to buckle under the forces of change. \nDole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes his guest Dr. Greg Treverton\, former chairman of the National Intelligence Council\, to examine how future leaders can cope with these tectonic changes and how to build a new framework. Treverton\, the most senior intelligence analyst for President Barack Obama\, will provide deep insight into what that structure might look like\, as well as an understanding of how the rising power of private players\, such as Facebook\, challenge the power of nations. \nThis discussion group is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to hear the foremost experts in this field reflect on what brought us to our present state\, how to get to the next evolution\, and what your role in all of this might be. \nGregory F. Treverton is Professor of the Practice of International Relations and Spatial Sciences at the University of Southern California. He served as chairman of the National Intelligence Council from September 2014 to January 2017. Earlier\, he directed the RAND Corporation’s Center for Global Risk and Security\, and before that\, its Intelligence Policy Center and its International Security and Defense Policy Center. He also was associate dean of the Pardee RAND Graduate School. \nHe has served in government for the first Senate Select Committee on Intelligence\, handling Europe for the National Security Council and as vice chair of the National Intelligence Council\, overseeing the writing of America’s National Intelligence Estimates. In addition to RAND\, he has taught at Harvard and Columbia universities\, has been a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations\, and also deputy director of the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London. \nHis latest books are Dividing Divided States and Beyond the Great Divide: Relevance and Uncertainty in National Intelligence and Science for Policy (with Wilhelm Agrell). \n  \n  \nEveryone’s an Editor: Finding “Truth” in Cyber News\n4/22/2020 \n \nCronkite. Murrow. Brinkley. \nIn the not so distant past\, these men dominated the American news landscape. With two channels (eventually three) to get your televised news\, you watched at least one of them. They were the Gatekeepers. The Arbiters of Truth. The advent of cable news\, and then internet\, brought an end to the Gatekeepers. Many lauded a new era of “democratized” journalism. What emerged had the best and the worst of the “news\,” and suddenly\, no one was there to sort through it all to find the truth. \nThe internet has made everyone an editor. Dole Fellow Ron Marks welcomes his guest Shelby Coffey\, former editor of the L.A. Times and US News and World Report\, to discuss how dramatically the world of journalism has changed in only 40 years. Information is faster than ever and there is far more of it. In this discussion group\, Marks and Coffey will teach how to cut through the noise and find the truth. \nShelby Coffey III began his journalistic career as a reporter at The Washington Post\, later becoming deputy managing editor. He is the former editor of the Los Angeles Times and US News and World Report. He was President of CNN Financial News and executive Vice President of ABC News. He was named editor of the Year by the National Press Foundation in 1995. He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and the International advisory council of APCO Worldwide and the board of the Newseum in Washington DC.
