Following opening remarks by Peter Scoblic, the Executive Editor of the New Republic, the first part of this half-day event will look at the historical antecedents of the nuclear situation in India, Pakistan, China, and North Korea with a panel moderated by Patrick O’Meara and panelists Mike Robinson, Sumit Ganguly, and Robert Ross. The second panel of the day will look at the contemporary nuclear situation in these countries with an eye toward the future. This panel will be moderated by Jeffrey Wasserstrom with panelists Jacques Fuqua, Dinshaw Mistry and Yu Bin. Rebecca MacKinnon, former Bureau Chief of CNN in Beijing and Tokyo will provide remarks as well.

Welcome to IndyBuzz

IndyBuzz provides information about Central Indiana's most stimulating and thought provoking events -- discussions and conferences, art exhibitions, films, music performances. It tells you what's happening … explains why you should be part of what’s happening. More than an events calendar, though, IndyBuzz tries to make events more meaningful for participants by suggesting an article or two to read before the event, recommending books or websites that will be sources of further information after the event, and pointing out related events that are worth attending.

Visit IndyBuzz's sister site, http://www.provocate.org/, which provides a context for the clusters of the events discussed in IndyBuzz.
