Instructional Video Catalog: Title Description Woolsey's lecture was entitled "National Security at the Dawn of the 21st Century." After the United States and its allies emerged victorious from WWI, the American economy, political model and culture were ascendant in the world. In the interwar years, however, things went terribly wrong. The seeds of the totalitarian movements of the 1930s that led to WWII were planted, in part, by the way we dealt with the happy and prosperous 1920s. Today, in an era reminiscent of the years following WWI, we are again living in largely happy and prosperous times. Todays nascent security problems are much different than those of three-quarters of a century ago, but there are some interesting parallels. What insights can we draw from experience and our knowledge of todays world that will enable us to do a better job of preserving the peace than was done in the years between WWI and WWII?
