This program places participants in the shoes of national security decision-makers facing major crises with North Korea.

The first crisis is the Korean War, where our group will review the historical context, the players, and organizations involved.

The second crisis is hypothetical but, a very plausible, present-day scenario where U.S. and North Korean relations deteriorate and threaten to escalate into a major conflict.

Study group leader John Fogarasi is both a lecturer and practitioner of U.S. foreign policy, having taught political science/international affairs earlier in his career and later as a senior U.S. Diplomat for over 30 years with assignments in Europe, Asia and North America.

This study group will meet Tuesdays for five weeks beginning on February 23.

Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.
