Brodt, a native of Poland who now lives in High Point, N.C., shared his story of tragedy and strength through one of the darkest periods in history during his Feb. 13 visit to Elon.

Assistant Professor of Political Science Baris Kesgin’s recent research is based on the premise that when leaders depart from their long-held, publicly known policy positions, one possible explanation is changes in their personality. Kesgin puts this assumption to test in the case of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in August 2005.

Brodt will share his story of resilience and survival at the LaRose Theatre on Wednesday, Feb. 13. 

Claussen’s article is included in Virtue Ethics, edited by Tom Angier (Routledge, 2018).
