This ninety-minute discussion will look at some of the troubled areas of the world. We will talk about the history of the issues in question and examine the implications of these problems for their region and the world. We will discuss the social, political, and environmental implications where appropriate. Don Gogniat will lead the discussion and encourages class participation.
