Named in honor of one of the modern era’s most significant international relations scholars, the  Conference in Honor of Robert Jervis is Columbia University’s premier international security event. Jervis made field-defining contributions to policy-relevant scholarship on the role of psychology in international conflict and the nuclear revolution in military affairs. During this conference, the new generation of experts in those fields will take stock of breakthroughs in neuroscience and the psychology of emotions, applying them to urgent practical problems of nuclear deterrence, risks of military escalation, and bargaining over the terms of peace.

Presented by The Arnold A. Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies and the Institute of Global Politics at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs; the Institute of Political Science at the University of St. Gallen; and the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at the University of Toronto.
