What drives countries to develop or not develop different nuclear fuel cycle technologies? In particular, why do some countries pursue the development of uranium enrichment and spent nuclear fuel reprocessing technologies (so-called "ENR technology")? As some countries debate whether to start developing ENR technology and others debate whether to continue developing ENR technology, answering these questions are vital for the future of the global nuclear industry.

The Harvard Seminar on History and Policy presents “History and Development Policy: A Necessary Dialogue?”

Seminar
Harvard students, staff, faculty - Perkins Room, Rubenstein-415
April 5, 2012
4:00-6:00 p.m.

The Harvard Seminar on History and Policy is a forum for lectures and workshops that examine the relationship between our interpretation of the past and our approach to policy issues. Typically, each meeting features a presentation by an invited scholar whose cutting edge historical work-in-progress is informed by, or seeks to influence, ongoing policy debates. The aim of the seminar is to bring historical perspective to bear on the work and challenges facing policy makers, and to foster more awareness among historians of how their work can inform contemporary public concerns.
