Please join the UW Law Interdisciplinary Health Law & Policy Program and the UW Center for an Informed Public for a presentation by Claudia Haupt of Northeastern School of Law,
Pseudoprofessional Advice: Misinformation, Professional Regulation, and the First Amendment.
Why are licensed professionals constrained in the advice they provide within professional relationships, yet free to offer potentially harmful advice to millions of people through social media, television, books, and advice columns? This gap stems from the structure of First Amendment doctrine: within the professional relationship, the First Amendment protects good advice, while outside that relationship, good and bad advice are generally treated equally.

On the first Tuesday of each month of the academic year, UW Global hosts a gathering for faculty who are engaged or interested in global work: Community Conversations.
This is not a lecture series. It is a welcoming and conversational space to meet colleagues, share food and drink, and connect around the many ways global perspectives show up in our teaching, research, and engagement. Whether your work involves international research, global learning, study abroad, visiting scholars, or exploring global issues locally, this is a place to get to know one another, exchange ideas, and build community.
Each month, we’ll feature a brief, informal spotlight such as a faculty project, a new global initiative, or an international guest on campus to spark conversation. The heart of the gathering, however, is the conversation itself: time to talk, listen, make connections, and learn what others across campus are doing. It is held from 3-5pm on the Seattle Campus at the UW Club.
Light food/snacks and beverages will be…

Join Associate Professor Daniel Bessner as he discusses his most recent book, "Imperialist Realism." The book is a collection of essays elucidating the titular concept, which centers on a single question: What does it feel like to live in a moment in which it is easier to imagine the end of the world than it is to imagine the end of the U.S. Empire? By analyzing the theory and practice of U.S. foreign policy, "Imperialist Realism" provides theoretical and empirical accounts of modern empire, liberalism, and global affairs.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Daniel Bessner is the Anne H.H. and Kenneth B. Pyle Associate Professor in American Foreign Policy at the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies. He is a historian of U.S. foreign relations whose work has appeared in Harper’s Magazine, The New York Times, and other venues.
