The Road to Hell? Intentions, Uncertainty and the Origins of World War I - Sebastian Rosato

A century after the outbreak of World War I, there is still little consensus on its causes. The lessons learned are of particular importance for the United States and the world today. University of Notre Dame Professor Sebastian Rosato specializes in the theory and history of great power politics and will question established explanations and develop new arguments about the causes of the Great War. The event is part of the Hesburgh Lecture Series and is presented in partnership with the Notre Dame Club of Kansas City. Recorded April 19, 2015 in J.C. Nichols Auditorium at the National World War I Museum at Liberty Memorial. For more information about the National WWI Museum and Memorial visit http://theworldwar.org
