The Bernard L. Schwartz Lecture

This lecture series was established in fall 2002 and is funded by the Bernard and Irene Schwartz Foundation. Mr Schwartz is the retired chairman and CEO of Loral Space and Communication. The series focuses on two areas: the evolution of the relationship between business and government in the making of foreign policy, and ways for government to make better use of business in solving foreign policy problems and for business to become more engaged in the making of foreign policy.
