SUMMARY:The Folly of “Regime Change”
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]“Regime change” is a strategy that was once popular with neoconservatives in trying to address challenges in Afghanistan\, Iraq\, and Libya. In late March\, President Joe Biden caused a stir when he said Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” in an impassioned speech in Warsaw. The White House downplayed the remark\, insisting that Biden was not suggesting regime change but that he was expressing his “moral outrage” at Putin’s actions in Europe. But\, the phrase lingers on. \nOn June 7\, the American Council on Germany and 1014 will host a discussion with political scientist Dr. Benjamin Denison\, on what a regime change may mean for Russia and transatlantic relations. This event is part of a series titled Democracies und Pressure: Challenges for the Global Liberal Order.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F9716545330722%2FWN_P7eQOTD8TzugYYqlRbHhIg” css=”.vc_custom_1654533135183{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Dr. Benjamin Denison is currently a Data Scientist specializing in Time Series and Panel Data analysis at Fors Marsh Group. His methodological expertise is in panel data methods\, time series analysis\, conceptualization and measurement\, and mixed-methods research. His substantive expertise is in international relations\, international security\, foreign regime change\, military occupation\, and democratization\, and military occupation. \nDr. Denison is a non-resident fellow with Defense Priorities\, where he focuses on issues related to U.S. foreign policy and international security issues. Previously he was the Assistant Director and Senior Research Associate with the Notre Dame International Security Center at the University of Notre Dame\, a postdoctoral fellow at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University and a U.S. Foreign Policy and International Security Fellow at Dartmouth College’s Dickey Center for International Understanding. \nHe completed his Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Notre Dame in 2018\, where he was a predoctoral fellow with NDISC\, served as a research fellow for the Varieties of Democracy project\, and was a Dissertation Year Fellow with the Kellogg Institute for International Studies.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Energy Security and the War in Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine\, we have seen an energy crisis unfold in Europe – and particularly in Germany given its heavy reliance on energy from Russia. The looming threat of Russia suspending gas deliveries to Germany or Germany ending the procurement as part of a sanctions package\, respectively\, could lead to a drastic increase in energy prices and shortage in gas supply. What are the challenges of being energy independent in an interconnected global economy? What does the war in Ukraine mean for energy security in Europe? What are the short-\, mid-\, and long-term consequences? And\, how are governments and citizens reacting? \nJoin ACG and 1014 for another discussion as part of their virtual series Democracies und Pressure: Challenges for the Global Liberal Order. We will be joined by Samantha Gross\, Director of the Energy Security and Climate Initiative at the Brookings Institution\, and Dr. Rainer Quitzow from the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS).[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F9716554806815%2FWN_2mkdL7FXRFGAhhDZYQdVjw” css=”.vc_custom_1655480714408{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Samantha Gross is a Fellow at the Brookings Institution\, where she also directs the Energy Security and Climate Initiative.

How will Germany take the lead in developing global solutions to a host of issues in the face of open conflict in Europe? \nJoin the American Council on Germany and the German Embassy in Washington\, DC for a discussion about the security dimension of Germany’s G7 Presidency.
