Dr. Anton Koslov spoke on "The Crisis of Modernity: Asymetry, Uncertainty and the Emerging Political Culture" on April 10th at Arcadia University. This lecture was part of a visiting professorship at AGS's partner institution Arcadia University, Pennsylvania, where he is teaching until the end of the Spring semester.

In the past fifteen years, basic concepts of international relations associated with the Yalta agreement have been challenged. The end of a bi-polar world, humanitarian interventions, the war on terror all point to the emergence of a new system of international relations. The main features of this system are asymetry and uncertainty. Dr. Koslov addressed these issues as well as their larger implications for global peace and security.
