Barton Speaker at WAC’s ASILOMAR Conference 2008

PCR Project Co-Director Rick Barton was a speaker at the World Affairs Council of Northern California's ASILOMAR CONFERENCE 2008 -- "From London to Moscow: New Faces, Old Alliances." Please check back soon for audio from the event. The conference examined how Europe is changing and addressed such questions as:

• How does new leadership on the continent affect foreign policy both within the European Union and in transatlantic relationships?
• The EU now includes twenty-seven states. How does this evolution, including the economic, political and social challenges faced by the region, affect transatlantic relationships and foreign policy?
• How do these relationships impact the broader global agenda?
• How do the US presidential candidates view Europe, and what policy changes can we expect in 2009?
