Iraqi conflict subject of panel discussion
By Andy Clendennen With the United States discussing the possibility of invading Iraq, University College in Arts & Sciences will host a panel discussion covering a variety of related topics at 7 p.m. Nov. 12 in the Arts & Sciences Laboratory Teaching Building, Room 300. Marvin Marcus, Ph.D., coordinator of the international affairs program and associate professor of Asian and Near Eastern languages and literatures in Arts & Sciences, will moderate "Conflict With Iraq: Turning Point or Prelude to War?" The idea for the panel arose about a month ago, shortly after President Bush turned his attention to Saddam Hussein and Iraq. Panelists include Henry W. Berger, Ph.D., associate professor of history in Arts & Sciences; James W. Davis, Ph.D., professor of political science in Arts & Sciences; Larry M. May, J.D., professor of philosophy in Arts & Sciences; Leila N. Sadat, J.D., professor of law; and Harry Levins, military writer for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Several issues will be discussed, including what constitutes a legal war and a just war; what are the justifications and risks associated with a unilateral campaign against Iraq; what role does international law play; and what are the possible consequences of a military strike against Iraq, both in the United States and overseas. The panel discussion is free and open to the public. For more information, call 935-6700. |
