McCollum Hall
The purpose of the Deterrence and Assurance Academic Alliance (DAAA) is to develop a community of interest focused on the themes of national security, deterrence and assurance, to leverage expertise and research on the concepts and practice of deterrence and assurance, and to encourage development of deterrence professionals in order to meet the Nation’s need to future generations of leaders to address these challenges. The 2018 conference is proudly sponsored and hosted by the University of Nebraska at Lincoln’s Department of Political Science and the College of Law’s Space, Cyber, and Telecommunication’s Law Program. This year the theme of the conference is “Thinking Outside the Silo: Creative Problem Solving in Deterrence and Assurance.” Everything you remember about traditional deterrence theory? Challenge it. This workshop will challenge conventional wisdom to address the changing landscape of security threats and war fighting domains. Submissions should think outside the box and use new and innovative methodologies to reassess old problems and address new ones in deterring adversaries and assuring allies. The conference will be held on March 15-16th, 2018. Agenda and registration details are available on the website:
