Details

How do people make decisions in an international crisis, and how can wargames help us understand those choices?

Join the SAIS Wargaming Club for a conversation with Dr. Jackie Schneider about her work on the International Crisis Wargame Series.

We'll explore how political psychology informs game design, how researchers study decision-making under uncertainty, and what the results reveal about technology, deterrence, and escalation. The discussion will consider both the possibilities and limitations of using wargames to study international security.
Food Provided (TBD)
