About

The National Security Program and the Belfer Center are co-sponsors of a weekly study group to promote awareness of American military affairs. LTC(P) Rich Ferguson, LTC Addison Burgess and Dr. Mike Egan will address the rapid advances made in the social media arena and how those advances are being leveraged particularly well by potential opponents of the U.S. They will also illustrate the generational gap hindering the U.S military leadership from capitalizing on this technological and new media revolution. This particular talk will encourage participant viewpoints to better define problems and offer recommendations.
