This will be a non-technical presentation 12-1:15 September 19 on a subject I have been thinking about for more than 45 years: why does the world have universally respected norms for ionizing radiation (from nuclear power plants and X-rays) that have no legal force? The answer is not only interesting but also applicable to other subjects that entail both benefits and risks, like toxic and climate-change chemicals, pharmaceuticals, genetic engineering, arms control, and artificial intelligence.
Lunch will be available. Also a good look at the new SAIS home at 555 Pennsylvania Avenue. Sign up here. I hope to see you there,
