Location:  Santa Fe Preparatory School

Speaker: Dr. Stanley Wolpert

Professor Wolpert will analyze India’s remarkable economic development, the opportunities created by the youthful majority of its population, and the challenges posed by the lagging rural sector. He will also discuss India’s strategic partnership with the United State and the terrorist threats the country faces, paying special attention to India-Pakistan relations and the long-standing conflict over Kashmir. Wolpert will consider both the nightmare scenario of nuclear conflict between these two countries as well as suicide bombings, and the prospects for peace and progress.

Stanley Wolpert is Professor Emeritus of History at the University of California, Los Angeles where he is affiliated with UCLA’s Asia Institute. He earned his doctorate at the University of Pennsylvania and has published several books including A New History of India (4th edition, Oxford University Press, 1993).  His visit to New Mexico was arranged in conjunction with the Albuquerque International Association where he will be speaking on Sunday, March 21st.
