Event: 1 Feb Deadline 2 May Presentation “Governing Intelligence” Stanford Journal of International Law
#Events2014 Symposium
Transnational Threats and the National Security State
May 2, 2014 at Stanford Law School
February 1, 2014 is Deadline for Abstract
The goal of Governing Intelligence is to move beyond the rather narrow focus of today's debate — largely about surveillance — to have a much broader conversation about the power and limits of intelligence agencies. We will convene academics, policymakers, business leaders, and civil society groups to analyze the challenges of intelligence governance from a comparative and international perspective. The premise behind the symposium is that the debate to rein in intelligence gathering should occur along with an examination of the power and limits of intelligence agencies in the face of transnational threats such as terrorism, cyber-warfare, drug trafficking, and weapons proliferation. Only then will we appreciate the imperatives of freedom and security in their proper context.

Here is the latest in the GMO struggle. Although Big Food thwarted the labelling movement in both California and Washington by spending tens of millions of dollars — some sources say in Washington as much as a million dollars a day — it passed in Connecticut and Maine. Buyers, ordinary people, are increasingly concerned about knowing what is in their food. So now Big Food is going to try another tack, as this report describes.
