Title:WORLD GOVERNMENT
Category:general
Timeslot:Fri 11:30 am (90 minutes)
Location:ACC / 207-A
Description:Is it a real possibility or mere science fiction? Many SF novels take something like a world state for granted, as part of the background of their future universe. Yet if one talks about world government as a concrete political goal -- however distant -- people often dismiss it as hopelessly naive and utopian. What is the likelihood of it ever happening?
Speaker(s):Brenda Cooper, Tad Daley(M), John Barnes, John Shirley
