WIESBADEN, Germany -- U.S. Army Europe hosted a geo-political seminar for new employees here, Sept. 10-11.
The geo-political seminars, which focus on German and European military, political and economic systems are one of the ways U.S. Army Europe helps foster mutual understanding with our allies and partner nations.
The training seminars are an investment in the Army's future, designed to develop adaptable and thoughtful leaders. Army commanders and senior staff officers, civilians and non-commissioned officers and other personnel who regularly interact with host nation authorities and institutions discuss current and historical geopolitical issues with Air Force and German Forces personnel in a joint and combined educational environment.
Although topics are updated frequently to keep pace with current events, typical seminar subjects-- taught by journalists, scientists, and professors from the University of Hamburg, Berlin Free University, and Haus Rissen -- include:
•The European Union as a strategic actor in international crisis management;
•Current U.S. and European issues;
•Comparative analysis of the German and the U.S. political systems.
