SUMMARY:Atomic Voices: Redressing Nuclear Harm: Transitional Justice in the Nuclear Age
DESCRIPTION:Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs | Virtual Event \nDescription: This is part of the Managing the Atom Atomic Voices Series. It will be from 10:00am-noon on December 1 and is open to the public. The Zoom webinar registration can be found here. Nuclear deterrence and disarmament discussions often center on potential future use and threats of use of nuclear weapons. Attention is growing\, however\, on the harm that nuclear weapons have already done\, mostly focused on the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings and on nuclear testing impacts. This seminar offers a nuclear justice lens derived from concepts of transitional justice (TJ). Traditionally applied in the context of human rights violations the analytical and normative framework can be used to study the nuclear past and present efforts to address it. We propose to understand nuclear harm as a form of “systemic wrongdoing”. Specifically\, recent work by TJ scholars on colonial crimes and post-colonial injustice bears direct relevance for discussions on nuclear justice. We use the different “pillars” of TJ – criminal liability\, redress\, truth-telling\, and reform – to analyze the progress made since the start of the nuclear age in addressing nuclear injustice and to identify gaps and potentials for political and legal action. The seminar builds on the 2021 Peace Research Institute Frankfurt report Beyond the Ban: A Global Agenda for Nuclear Justice. Note: any recording or use of content from this webinar by the public or media is restricted. We request that you ask for permission before using any material from the webinar. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Democracy and the Catholic Church in Nicaragua
DESCRIPTION:Center for Strategic & International Studies | Virtual Event \nDescription: Please join the CSIS Americas Program and the CSIS Project on Prosperity and Development\, in partnership with the University of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs and Pulte Institute for Global Development\, for an event on democratic backsliding in Nicaragua and the role of the Catholic Church and faith-based society. The event will feature keynote remarks and a panel discussion. As the Ortega regime has consolidated its dictatorship\, the Catholic Church stands as the most trusted institution in the country and outspoken advocate for human rights. Ortega has perceived this as a threat\, cracking down on the Church and arresting priests\, most famously Bishop Rolando Álvarez\, who remains a political prisoner today. The event seeks to elevate voices on the frontlines in the fight for democracy in Nicaragua\, including leaders of the Catholic Church and wider civil society\, as part of an ongoing series of work by CSIS on Nicaragua and its descent into authoritarianism. The CSIS Americas Program has convened several public and private events on Nicaragua\, including a launch event for a report on the treatment of political prisoners\, and a private meeting with former political prisoners. The Americas Program has also released numerous written pieces and podcasts analyzing the regime\, its sources of support\, and options for U.S. policymakers. The University of Notre Dame’s Pulte Institute for Global Development in the Keough School of Global Affairs has been supporting researchers and civil society in Nicaragua for nearly a decade through the Central America Research Alliance (CARA). Prior to the revocation of the charters of most university and civil society groups in Nicaragua\, CARA provided grants and capacity exchange for research on human rights in the country. Since 2018\, CARA has provided support for civil society advocates that remain in the country and those in exile\, including public and private advocacy in support of CARA member and former political prisoner Felix Maradiaga and Nicaraguan universities. The Pulte Institute is currently conducting a project to support evidence-based advocacy for human rights and democracy in the current context in Nicaragua and northern Central America. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Book Event: The Lumumba Plot: The Secret History of the CIA and a Cold War Assassination
DESCRIPTION:Center for Strategic & International Studies | Virtual Event \nDescription: In The Lumumba Plot\, Stuart Reid untangles the turmoil that ensued after Congo’s independence from Belgium in 1960. A few days after Congo’s independence Lumumba sought United Nations (UN) aid against a mutinous army\, Belgian intervention\, and two secessions in his newborn country. UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld quickly arranged the organization’s biggest peacekeeping mission to date. But the chaos was still spreading. Frustrated\, Lumumba turned to the Soviets for support\, triggering U.S. concern. To thwart the spread of communism in Africa\, the CIA orchestrated Lumumba’s removal. Within a year\, Lumumba was ousted and assassinated. Hammarskjöld’s mysterious death followed. For the Congolese people\, the events of 1960–61 represented the opening chapter of a long horror story. This chapter\, with Lumumba’s demise\, marked a dark genesis for the Congolese and a blueprint for U.S. interventions\, shaping Cold War dynamics on a global scale. The CSIS Africa Program is joined by Stuart Reid to discuss his new book The Lumumba Plot: The Secret History of the CIA and Cold War Assassination. Stuart Reid is an executive editor of Foreign Affairs. He has written for The Atlantic\, The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, Bloomberg Businessweek\, Politico Magazine\, Slate\, and other publications. \nThe registration link can be found below.
