International Relations Public Lecture:

Cognitive Approaches to Foreign Policy Analysis

Date: Thursday 12 January 2017, 6.30 - 8.00pm
Venue: Wolfson Theatre, New Academic Building
Speaker: Professor Deborah Welch Larson
Chair: Professor Toby Dodge

This lecture is part of the Department of International Relation's Foreign Policy Analysis lecture series on competing theoretical trends within Foreign Policy Analysis and the future development of the discipline.

Deborah Welch Larson is Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Los Angeles. Her research draws on cognitive social psychology to explain foreign policy decision making, as in Origins of Containment: A Psychological Explanation (1985). She is the author most recently of Anatomy of Mistrust: U.S.-Soviet Relations During the Cold War (1997), which uses social psychology to explain missed opportunities to mitigate U.S.-Soviet rivalry.

Toby Dodge (@ProfTobyDodge) is Associate Professor of International Relations, Director of the Middle East Centre and Senior Consulting Fellow for the Middle East at the International Institute for Strategic Studies.

This event is free and open to all with no ticket or pre-registration required. Entry is on a first come, first served basis.

For any queries e-mail s.wise3@lse.ac.uk or phone 0207 955 6821.
