Nuclear Deterrence and Disarmament: Conflicting Perspectives in an Age of Tension

On the 24th of May, 2024, the Centre hosted Cassandra Varanka (Peace Fellow, University of Queensland) for a public talk on the global politics of nuclear deterrence and disarmament policy.

As well as a range of people in person, we were joined by participants online including Assoc Prof Marianne Hanson (International Relations, University of Queensland) and Assoc Prof Anna Hood (Law, University of Auckland). Dr Kennedy Graham provided a response to Cassandra’s talk, with Assoc Prof Jamie Gillen convening and moderating.
