Hein Goemans on the Campbell Conversations

WRVO Public Media

Why are citizens willing to fight, and die, in some wars but not others? What are the implications of that for political leadership and for war, more generally. This week, Grant Reeher speaks with University of Rochester professor Hein Goemans who has been studying these questions, and shares what he's learned.

Grant Reeher is Director of the Campbell Public Affairs Institute and a professor of political science at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. He is also creator, host and program director of “The Campbell Conversations” on WRVO, a weekly regional public affairs program featuring extended in-depth interviews with regional and national writers, politicians, activists, public officials, and business professionals.
