\"London\"<\/a>
\n<\/center><\/p>\n

Defense policy has become a big issue in this election. Millions of people believe Britain needs a foreign policy u-turn. 14 years of the War on Terror have caused carnage and chaos in the Middle East, Central Asia, Africa and beyond. This is a chance to discuss the causes and consequences of serial war and how we can resist it.<\/p>\n

The world is a much more dangerous place than it looked fourteen years ago, before the launch of the War on Terror.\u00a0 The Middle East is in flames as a result of a series of Western interventions. The War on Terror has in fact spread violence and instability across an arc from Central Asia through the Middle East and into the African continent.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, great power confrontation has returned to Europe as NATO has pushed progressively Eastwards towards the Russian border, triggering crisis and civil war in Ukraine. Confronting a World at War brings together key writers, campaigners and politicians to analyse this alarming situation and to discuss and plan how the anti-war movement should respond.<\/p>\n

Sessions include:
\n\t\u2022\tWhere did ISIS come from?
\n\t\u2022\tFrontline Ukraine – NATO pushes East
\n\t\u2022\tThe return of the neocons
\n\t\u2022\tDivide and conquer? The US and Latin America
\n\t\u2022\tTrident: Scrapping the deadly deterrent
\n\t\u2022\tSaudi Arabia: Frankenstein\u2019s monster in the Middle East
\n\t\u2022\tBack East of Suez<\/p>\n
