    Eric Hendriks-Kim, Why Chinese Communists Love Western Conservatives

    Eric Hendriks-Kim (Mathias Corvinus Collegium), Why Chinese Communists Love Western Conservatives, Sept. 29 at 5 pm in Carpenter 13.

    Though China is still formally communist, its intellectuals show surprising affection for Western conservative authors and viewpoints. Samuel Huntington and Leo Strauss are favorites, and Chinese interpretations of American politics often track those of the American Right. What accounts for these affinities? Hendriks-Kim, a Dutch sociologist, revisits his important essay "Why China Loves Conservatives,” which first appeared in First Things. This event is co-sponsored by the Daniel Webster Program and the Political Economy Project.

    Nassim Taleb, Will AI Worsen Global 'Fragility'? Oct. 3 in Filene at 5

    Nassim Taleb, Will AI Worsen Global ‘Fragility’? Oct. 3, Filene Auditorium at 5 pm.

    A conversation with Nassim Nicholas Taleb, author of The Black Swan.

    Moderated by Bernard Avishai (Government), regular contributor to The New Yorker. Nassim Taleb is one of the world’s most influential thinkers. Having endured civil war in his native Lebanon, and after studying in Paris and Wharton, he spent two decades as an options trader, devoting himself to the analysis of risk. He remains focused on the mitigation of events which, though not probable, could be catastrophic. His books The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable and Antifragile: Things That Gain From Disorder have transformed thinking about uncertainty. His work has been translated into over fifty languages.
