SUMMARY:American Promise
DESCRIPTION:Who gets to decide whether and how to regulate money in our campaigns and elections?\n\n\nWho gets to decide whether and how to regulate money in our campaigns and elections? For the past 50 years\, the Supreme Court has made itself the nation’s apex regulator of money-in-politics. Through its campaign finance decisions\, the Court has taken many options off the table from state and federal policymakers. But is this what the Founders intended or what the Constitution requires\, and is it the way things should be? \nThere is a growing movement — which includes state lawmakers from both major political parties — that is calling for an amendment to the United States Constitution that would empower the States and Congress to decide whether and how to regulate money in elections. In this panel\, we’ll explore the text and theory of the proposed amendment through an interactive discussion.

SUMMARY:The 19th  Annual John F. Scarpa Conference on Law\, Politics and Culture
DESCRIPTION:“Reimagining Conservatism in the Time of Trump”\n\n\nMartin G. McGuinn ’67 Ceremonial Courtroom (Room 201) \n \nThe November 2024 election delivered a big win for conservatives. Yet\, the future of conservatism will depend not just on winning elections but on preserving America as a free and just country worth dying for. A patriotism based on the untutored interests of ordinary voters will need to be corrected and reinforced by a dedication to the principles of the nation’s founding but perhaps even more\, in the expression of the great conservative thinker Willmoore Kendall\, “that experience of God that truly underlies Western Civilization.” Through a discussion about Steven Hayward’s Patriotism Is Not Enough (2017)\, this conference will invite constructive exercises of the political imagination made exigent by liberalism’s exhaustion. The speakers are leading experts in law\, political philosophy\, history\, theology\, public policy and conservative thought. \n \nThe Pennsylvania Continuing Legal Education Board has approved this symposium for 5.5 substantive and 1 ethics CLE credits. Please note registration prior to the event is required. \n \nFor the full agenda and speaker details\, please see the Villanova Law website: \nhttps://www1.villanova.edu/university/law/about/news-events/events/2025/1219.html

SUMMARY:Chris Hayes: The Siren's Call
DESCRIPTION:Join us in Silicon Valley as Chris Hayes discuss a single holistic framework that could wrest back control of our lives\, politics & future.\n\n\nWe all feel it—the distraction\, the loss of focus\, the addictive focus on the wrong things for too long. We bump into the zombies on their phones in the street\, and sometimes they’re us. We stare in pity at the four people at the table in the restaurant\, all on their phones\, and then we feel the buzz in our pocket. Something has changed utterly: for most of human history\, the boundary between public and private has been clear\, at least in theory. Now\, as MSNBC host and bestselling author Chris Hayes writes in The Siren’s Call\, “With the help of a few tech firms\, we basically tore it down in about a decade.” \nHayes says “attention capitalism” has assaulted our minds and our hearts\, and has reordered our politics and the very fabric of our society. He argues that we are in the midst of an epoch-defining transition whose only parallel is what happened to labor in the 19th century: attention has become a commodified resource extracted from us\, and from which we are increasingly alienated. \nAs Hayes writes\, “Now our deepest neurological structures\, human evolutionary inheritances\, and social impulses are in a habitat designed to prey upon\, to cultivate\, distort\, or destroy that which most fundamentally makes us human.” \nJoin us in Silicon Valley to hear Chris Hayes discuss a single holistic framework that could wrest back control of our lives\, our politics\, and our future. \nChris Hayes\, Host. “All in with Chris Hayes” on MSNBC; Author\, The Siren’s Call: How Attention Became the World’s Most Endangered Resource; X @chrislhayes \n11:15 a.m. doors open & check-in12–1 p.m. program(all times Pacific Time)

SUMMARY:Book Lecture: The Russian FSB
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kevin Riehle provides a brief history of the FSB’s origins\, placed within the context of Russian history and power structure\n\n\n***This lecture is sponsored by the IWP IAFIE Alpha Student Chapter*** \nSchedule: \n4:00pm – Registration and Coffee \n4:30-5:30pm – Lecture \n5:30-6:00pm – Book Signing \n \nAbout the Book: \nSince its founding in 1995\, the FSB\, Russia’s Federal Security Service\, has regained most the domestic security functions of the Soviet-era KGB. Under Vladimir Putin\, who served as FSB director just before becoming president\, the agency has grown to be one of the most powerful and favored organizations in Russia. The FSB not only conducts internal security but also has primacy in intelligence operations in former Soviet states. Their activities include anti-dissident operations at home and abroad\, counterintelligence\, counterterrorism\, criminal investigations of crimes against the state\, and guarding Russia’s borders. In The Russian FSB\, Kevin P. Riehle provides a brief history of the FSB’s origins\, placed within the context of Russian history\, the government’s power structure\, and Russia’s wider culture. He describes how the FSB’s mindset and priorities show continuities from the tsarist regimes and the Soviet era. The book’s chapters analyze origins\, organizational structure\, missions\, leaders\, international partners\, and cultural representations such as the FSB in film and television. \nHere is a link to an earlier book Dr. Riehle wrote for NIU available for free download: Russian Intelligence: A Case-based Study of Russian Services and Missions Past and Present \n \nAbout the Author: \nDr. Kevin Riehle retired in 2021 from a 30+ year career in the U.S. national security community\, with tours in the Federal Bureau of Investigation\, National Counterintelligence Center\, U.S. European Command Joint Analysis Center\, DoD Counterintelligence Field Activity\, Defense Intelligence Agency\, and the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence. He also retired in 2014 as a U.S. Navy Reserve intelligence officer with the rank of commander. \nDuring his career\, Riehle focused on analyzing foreign intelligence services and supporting counterintelligence activities to neutralize the threats they pose. He finished his career as an associate professor of strategic intelligence at the National Intelligence University\, teaching courses and chairing over 40 master’s theses on intelligence\, counterintelligence\, and Eurasia-related topics. He also served as the department head for the Collection\, Analysis and Counterintelligence Department. \nAfter retirement\, he was an Associate Professor for two years in the University of Mississippi’s Center for Intelligence and Security Studies\, teaching courses on U.S. national security policy\, intelligence analysis\, and counterintelligence\, and leading student capstone projects and undergraduate honors theses. He moved to Brunel in 2023. \nLearn more about IWP graduate programs \nMake a gift to IWP

SUMMARY:What's Left? An Event on the Climate Crisis with Malcolm Harris
DESCRIPTION:Harris investigates the linkages between climate & migration\, profiteering & “natural” disasters\, political economy & the environment.\n\n\nHistoric hurricanes\, weeks of fires in major metropolises\, the warmest year on record… Climate change has become a unifying crisis in not only the United States but across the globe. Join us to talk to acclaimed writer Malcolm Harris about his new book What’s Left\, which takes up several alternative ways through the climate crisis. From liberal marketcraft to communist revolution\, Harris explores various alternatives for resolving the seemingly unresolvable tensions between the environment and global capitalism today. Throughout his book\, Harris investigates the linkages between climate and migration\, profiteering and “natural” disasters\, and political economy and the environment. The result is a galvanizing and hopeful look at the work ahead for solving the climate crisis in the rich tradition of Mike Davis and David Graeber.
