Professor Pervez Hoodbhoy–distinguished physicist, educator, documentary filmmaker, political commentator, and activist –will discuss the complex interactions between the forces of globalization and development of nuclear technology. He will examine the collapse of international nonproliferation treaties, and pursuit of the Bomb by states like North Korea and Iran. Hoodbhoy will also address related issues such as the specter of nuclear terrorism, whether the Islam-West clash can go nuclear, and global efforts to reach the goal of a nuclear-safe world.
