Technically Speaking-Soldiering and Citizenship in a Post-Modern Age
As military technology has changed, becoming more high-tech and "capital-intensive," so too has the relationship between countries' armed forces and their societies. Around the world, the draft is out, and professional, long-serving, volunteer forces are in. As the mass of citizens, in the United States and elsewhere, know less about military service and warfare, what does that mean for America's capacity and will to field a first-rate military force and sustain military operations abroad?
The "Technically Speaking" series features presentations by leading experts in the public and private sectors, as well as time for discussion and networking. It is designed to inspire, educate, and build the community of technology professionals committed to growing themselves and their organizations. Join us for these free events.
Date: Thursday, May 30, 2013
Time: 5:30–6:30 p.m.
