SUMMARY:Putin and the Roots of Russian Invasion (Part II)
DESCRIPTION:In this two-session series\, Professor Jess Velona explores how Putin’s autocracy and invasion of Ukraine have strong parallels throughout modern Russian history. The discussion will examine how Tsarist and Soviet Communist regimes\, for all of their differences\, exhibited commonalities including a penchant for imperial expansion\, suppression of ethnic and national traditions\, and scorn for democracy and individual rights. We’ll explore how this culminated in the Gulag\, the Great Terror\, deliberate famine in Ukraine\, the consequences of the Soviet collapse\, and finally\, how these events led to Putin’s fight to restore Russia’s imperial glory. \nAbout the Presenter: Jess Velona has taught courses on Russian history\, the Nazi regime\, and other topics at Fordham University’s College at 60 and NYU’s School of Professional Studies\, as well as African American history at CUNY’s College of Staten Island. He has been a Lecturer-in-Law at Columbia Law School since 2006.  Jess graduated from Harvard College and received an MA in history from NYU before completing Columbia Law School. He was a law clerk for then-Judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg\,  As a one time candidate for public office in Manhattan and former aide to Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan\, Jess loves sharing his passion for politics and history with students and adult audiences across the New York metropolitan area.

SUMMARY:The Rosenberg Trial: A Dramatic Transcript Reading
DESCRIPTION:In 1951\, the US government accused Julius and Ethel Rosenberg of spying for the Soviet Union. The case reverberated around the world\, damaging the relationship between the US and the USSR as well as sending shockwaves into an already traumatized Jewish community still recovering from the Holocaust. The Rosenbergs’ conviction and execution may be a familiar story to many– but the trial itself is not. In this program\, Aytan Adler will lead participants in a dramatic reading of the edited trial transcript. Much like a table reading for a play\, participants will be assigned parts (judge\, attorney\, plaintiff\, etc.) with time for discussion. Bring your curiosity and creative spirit!

SUMMARY:Foreign Affairs Discussion Group: Can the IMF Still Rescue the World Economy?
DESCRIPTION:The IMF is perhaps the most important and least understood global economic institution in the world today. But it has lost some of its mojo since the backlash against globalization started a few years ago—a globalization that it helped encourage through its free-market policy prescriptions. How relevant is it in a more shock-prone world that is increasingly nationalistic\, protectionist\, and anti-democratic? And what is it doing to address today’s serious global crises? \n
