Mo 12.12.22 | | Munich: U.S. - China relations in light of the Ukraine war Beschreibung »
An evening with Elihu Professor of History and Global Affairs at Yale and bestselling author Arne Westad
Moderated by Ambassador Eric Nelson, Associate Director, George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies
The Russian aggression against Ukraine began at a time when global tension was already running high.
What will the effects of the war be on relations between the United States and China, a relationship deemed by many to be key to future peace and stability? Will the Chinese leadership continue its de facto backing of Russia? And will Russia’s leaders accept a subservient relationship to China as a price they have to pay for the war?
Professor Westad will discuss these issues in light of lessons from history.
Odd Arne Westad is Elihu Professor of History and Global Affairs at Yale University and the author of The Cold War: A World History. Originally from Ålesund on the Norwegian coast, he studied history, philosophy, and modern languages in Oslo before doing a graduate degree in U.S./international history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Westad has published 16 books, most of which deal with 20th century Asian and global history. He joined the faculty at Yale after teaching at the London School of Economics (LSE), where he was School Professor of International History, and at Harvard University, where he was the S.T. Lee Professor of U.S.-Asia Relations. At Yale, he teaches in the History Department and at the Jackson School for Global Affairs. Westad is a fellow of the British Academy and of several other national academies, a visiting professor at Peking University, and a research associate of the Harvard Fairbank Center.
Moderation: Ambassador Eric Nelson, Associate Director of the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. With over 30 years in diplomatic service, Eric has served as U.S. Ambassador to Bosnia-Herzegovina (2019-2022) and is a member of the United States Senior Foreign Service with the rank of Minister Counselor. Amongst his many previous postings are Director of the Office of eDiplomacy in the Bureau of Information Resources Management, Deputy Chief of Mission in Costa Rica and Consul General in Munich. As an Ambassador-in-Residence, Eric contributes a Department of State perspective to the Marshall Center’s mission.

Sa 21.01.23 | | Exhibition visit of "Wonderwalls - Street Art meets Pop" & optional lunch Beschreibung »Dear alumni, dear friends,
Street art has become so popular that millions are paid at art auctions for works by artists like Banksy. Shepard Fairey, who designed the "Hope" campaign poster for former US President Barack Obama, has also achieved worldwide fame. Street art is social criticism and contemporary art that has made it into our everyday lives. It has broken down boundaries and established itself in the exclusive art world.
That is why we cordially invite you to start the year 2023 with an exclusive guided tour of the exhibition "Wonderwalls", which is dedicated to street art in all its facets, at NRW Forum Düsseldorf on 21 January 2023. More than 2,000 works of photography, graphic design as well as graffiti, sculptures, and designer toys merge in a spectacular staging.
We will meet at the Foyer in the NRW Forum, Ehrenhof 2, 40779 Düsseldorf, at 11.15 am, 15 min ahead of the tour to allow time for cloakroom and distribution of entrance tickets, so that we can start the tour on time.
Optionally: Afterwards, we would like to have lunch together in the old town of Düsseldorf to network and discuss our impressions of the exhibition.
Tip: If you would like to spend the entire day in Düsseldorf, you can stroll on your own along Königsallee after lunch. The famous boulevard is only a 10-minute walk from the old town.
Please register by Thursday, 19 January by completing the online registration form. We encourage you to sign-up early, as we allocate places on a first-come, first-served basis.
