Enosburg Falls Great Decisions GroupWHAT in the WORLD? GLOBAL/NATIONAL ISSUES
What in the World is going on? Good question.
With so much information and so much mis-information, it is hard to tell what is going on in the rest of the world.
Once again we have an Enosburg Falls discussion group, meeting to talk about global and national issues, using the book “Great Decisions 2006” as a starting reference guide. Hopefully, by sharing information and ideas, we can gain a better understanding of the forces that are driving these issues.
The book is published by the Foreign Policy Association, and will cost $25 to purchase. There will also be a copy available in the Enosburg Falls Library. Each of the discussion topics is based on a chapter in the book. There is additional information to be found on recommended Internet websites, listed in each chapter.
We will meet on Thursday evenings. The schedule and topics are as follows:
April 6: The Energy Policy Conundrum
April 20: Human Rights in an Age of Terrorism
May 4: Brazil: Invented Pasts and Hoped-for Futures
May 18: Turkey: on Europe’s Verge
June 1: To be decided
