On Thursday, September 29 at 11 a.m. PT and 2 p.m. ET, we held a Zoom discussion on Nuclear Dangers and beyond with Richard Falk and Ivana Hughes. They discussed the current state of affairs in the Ukraine War, the dangers that humanity and the planet face, as exposed by the war and otherwise and Falk’s book This Endangered Planet: Prospects and Proposals for Human Survival (1971). In August, the book was selected as a Book for the Century (Political and Legal) on the occasion of the centennial issue of the magazine Foreign Affairs, issued by the Council on Foreign Relations.
