Einaudi Center series on cybersecurity launches Sept. 14

The Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies is launching a series of talks on cybersecurity featuring national thought leaders. Political scientist Milton Mueller from the Georgia Institute of Technology will kick off the series, speaking on 'Cybersecurity and the Territorial State: Alignment and 'Fragmentation' in Global Internet Governance,' Sept. 14 at 4:30 p.m. in Gates Hall G01. Mueller is co-founder and co-director of the Internet Governance Project. His books include 'Networks and States: The Global Politics of Internet Governance? (2010) and 'Ruling the Root: Internet Governance and the Taming of Cyberspace? (2002). The series is organized by a new interdisciplinary working group convened by Einaudi Center Director Hirokazu Miyazaki and is co-sponsored by the Judith Reppy Institute for Peace and Conflict Studies. Miyazaki says the group, made up of scholars from seven departments and four colleges at Cornell, is especially interested in questions at the intersection of technology, politics and international law.
