Speakers:
Over the past few years, the world has witnessed a global pandemic, cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, extreme weather, and war in Ukraine. Is the world, and in particular the United States, prepared for future crises? Dr. Harlan Ullman addresses this question in his latest book, The Fifth Horseman and the New MAD: How Massive Attacks of Disruption Became the Looming Existential Danger to a Divided Nation and the World at Large.
Please join Hudson Institute for a conversation with Dr. Ullman, the Hon. Dov Zakheim, and Susan Eisenhower. Amb. Husain Haqqani will moderate the discussion.
