Great Decisions Discussion Group

Beginning on Wednesday, February 8 at 7pm and continuing on for seven additional Wednesdays, the Falmouth Public Library will be hosting a Great Decisions discussion group. The discussion group is composed of interested individuals who want an opportunity to learn about the foreign policy decision-making process. The Great Decisions program was developed by the Foreign Policy Association in 1954, and is the oldest and largest grass-roots world affairs education program of its kinds in the country.

Each Wednesday we will discuss a different topic. The topics of discussion for 2012 will be

“Middle East Realignment” (Feb. 8)
