Dr. Os Guinness, Public Policy and International Affairs Expert, Speaks at
AUA
Yerevan - On Monday June 13, 2005, within the framework of AUA's
Professional Lecture Series, the Alumni and Career Development Office hosted
an open lecture by one of the most distinguished and demanded speakers on
public policy and international affairs, Dr. Os Guinness. The theme of the
lecture was "Leadership and Statecraft: The Rise and Fall of Nations at
Times of Moral Crisis."
Dr. Os Guinness spoke about Armenian freedom and justice, and provided his
insights on the importance of building the rule of law, the institutions and
the ideas `that will really guarantee that freedom, not just for a few, not
just for one generation, but the generations to come.' He is the co-founder
and a Senior Fellow of The Trinity Forum and a distinguished writer and
speaker living in Virginia, USA. His most recent book, Unspeakable: Facing
up to Evil in an Age of Genocide and Terror, was published in February 2005
and is set to become a classic work in this difficult subject area. It
grapples with the evils unleashed through the genocides of the past century.
Dr. Guinness' deep concern is to bridge the chasm between academic knowledge
and popular knowledge, taking things that are academically important and
making them intelligible and practicable to a wider audience, especially as
they concern matters of public policy. He has spoken at the White house,
Capitol Hill, Camp David, and several universities nationwide and
internationally.
