Webinar: GLORY - The Deadliest Drug: December 7th
from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. EST (GMT-5)
In this webinar, Yale Magrass and Charles Derber,
authors of Glorious Causes, consider how elites galvanize people for war and
bring them to adopt political-economic identities that contradict their
rational self-interest. The book offers historical and contemporary cases:
Why poor U.S. white Southerners fought to protect the right of a few
thousand to own vast plantations. How the Nazis gained control not with a
promise of personal prosperity, but “discipline, fidelity, and honor.”

With the International Criminal Court investigating
the actions of all parties to the war in Afghanistan and potentially
investigating Israel's actions in Palestine, in June 2020 U.S. President
Donald Trump issued an executive order authorizing the punishment of any
individuals involved in or in any way assisting such court proceedings. The
U.S. State Department has restricted visas for ICC officials and in
September 2020 sanctioned two court officials, including the Chief
Prosecutor, freezing their U.S. assets and blocking them from financial
transactions with U.S. persons, banks, and companies.
Trump's action has been condemned by over 70
national governments, including the United States' closest allies, and by
International Association of Democratic Lawyers.
