Vanda Felbab-Brown - Shooting Up *CANCELLED*

February 12, 2010 - 7:00pm

*THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED* 

A fellow in Foreign Policy at Brookings, Felbab-Brown argues that the “narcoguerilla” premise—which assumes a symbiotic relationship between drug trafficking and terrorist organizations—that underlies much U.S. policy is mistaken and counterproductive. She draws on specific case studies from around the world as evidence for effective sequencing of counterinsurgency, counterterrorism, and counternarcotics efforts.
