North American Colloquium Speaker Series

Description

Nationalist extremism poses mounting challenges around the world, including in North America. This web-based panel discussion will focus on the policy tools and frameworks available for countering nationalist extremism in Mexico, Canada and the United States. How have each country’s laws and security institutions evolved since 9/11 to deal with new nationalist threats? What are the limits of existing policy approaches and the key debates surrounding them?

This event will be the third in a series organized for the 2021-22 North American Colloquium convened jointly by the Autonomous National University of Mexico, University of Toronto, and University of Michigan.
