25 of 250 - The Echoes of 9/11 in Law, Policy, and Security Today
As America celebrates its 250th birthday, it also remembers the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The attacks were an inflection point in U.S. history and profoundly affected American law, policy, security, and culture.
Join us for an engaging discussion of how 9/11 changed law and policy on terrorism and national security more broadly over the past 25 years, both in the U.S. and internationally. Experts will examine the post-9/11 focus on counterterrorism, its effects and consequences for today’s security posture and threats facing the United States, and how terrorism fits into the larger international security picture today. We will also discuss how legal and governance frameworks developed in response to 9/11, and the role of technological innovations over the past 25 years, both in terms of its influence on and enablement of extremist ideology, and as a tool for combatting the same.
Featuring:
- Darrell Blocker, Senior Strategic and Global Intelligence Advisor, Lexpat Global Services
- Prof. Mary Habeck, Adjunct Professor of History and Strategic Intelligence, Patrick Henry College
- (Moderator) Adam R. Pearlman, Founder and CEO, Lexpat Global Services
