Please join us this Friday, February 16th, from 2:00 to 3:00PM for the next installment in the ongoing Friday Forum Series hosted by The Center for the Study of Global Issues (GLOBIS), to be held in the 4th floor conference room of the Franklin House. This week's talk, "Risky Business: Third Party Trade with Sanctioned States," will be delivered by Mr. Bryan Early, a graduate student in the Department of International Affairs at the University of Georgia. An abstract follows:
The paper explores the factors that determine whether third party states' trade with sanctioned states increases or decreases after sanctions are imposed upon them. Using a triadic model, I explain how economic and political factors regarding third party states' relations with both the sanctions sender and the target of the sanctions ultimately affect third party states' trade with the sanctions target.
Also, please plan ahead for the next forum. On Friday, March 2nd, at 2:00PM, Dr. Patricia Sullivan of the Department of International Affairs will present her work. In addition, if anyone is interested in presenting a paper, thesis, prospectus, or dissertation to an interested and informed audience, please contact Jon Polk at the e-mail address or phone number listed below.
