MURFREESBORO — The
100th anniversary of the start of World War I and the conflict’s
continuing impact on 21st century geopolitics will be explored on
the next edition of the “MTSU On the Record” radio program.
Host Gina Logue’s interview with Dr. Michael S. Neiberg will
air from 5:30 to 6 p.m. Monday, Nov. 3, and from 8 to 8:30 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 9,
on WMOT-FM (89.5 and www.wmot.org).
Neiberg will present this year’s Strickland Lecture in
history, titled “Demolishing the Myths and Half-Truths of 1914: Why We Must Do
Better in 2014,” at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 10, in the State Farm Lecture Hall
of the Business and Aerospace Building. The event is free and open to the
public.
The author of “Dance of the Furies: Europe and the Outbreak
of World War I,” Neiberg is a professor of history in the Department of
National Security and Strategy at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle,
Pennsylvania.
“Some of the problems they were dealing with in 1914 are the
same problems we’re dealing with in 2014 – increased globalization, increased
international trade, non-state actors, terrorist groups,” Neiberg said.
