What might not be easy to remember are some of the sinister acts in the years preceding that day, the rise of Al-Qaeda and the cumulative response by the United States. As the 20th anniversary of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and the plane crash in Pennsylvania nears, Dr. Troy Goodale, a professor of political science<\/a> at Tusculum University<\/a> will pull the pieces together in an upcoming lecture.<\/p>\n

Dr. Goodale will present \u201c9\/11: Numbers of Notoriety, Day of Infamy\u201d at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 9. This free talk will be available to the Tusculum family and the community in the Meen Center lecture hall as well as on the Zoom virtual platform. Dr. Goodale will answer questions at the conclusion of his presentation.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of us remember where we were and what emotions we felt when that tragic day in our nation\u2019s history unfolded,\u201d said Wayne Thomas, dean of the College of Civic and Liberal Arts<\/a>. \u201cBut there are a series of other events that bookend 9\/11, and Dr. Goodale will help us develop a more complete picture that will increase everyone\u2019s understanding of the dynamics that remain a factor today. We encourage people to join us for this insightful lecture.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Goodale\u2019s presentation is part of the Cicero Lecture Series, a tradition on the Tusculum campus that has touched on a wide spectrum of topics.<\/p>\n

The lecture\u2019s namesake, Cicero, was a Roman statesman, lawyer, teacher and orator.\u00a0He often stayed at his villa near the former Roman town of Tusculum, where he wrote some of his famous works and engaged with friends in discussions about philosophy and the principles of republican government and good citizenship.<\/p>\n

In his presentation, Dr. Goodale will provide background information about Al-Qaeda \u2013 its origins and its activities throughout the 1990s, including the USS Cole attack and the attack on the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi; the organization\u2019s declaration of war on America; and the nation\u2019s underestimation of the threat the group posed.<\/p>\n

Dr. Goodale will also review the events of 9\/11 in detail and Al-Qaeda\u2019s preparation for the multiple attacks. He will also examine the aftermath of 9\/11 in U.S. foreign policy, including the nation\u2019s entry into the war in Afghanistan and the withdrawal of American troops taking place now.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mantra for Americans after what transpired on 9\/11 was to never forget, so part of the aim of this talk is to keep this day in our collective memory,\u201d Dr. Goodale said. \u201cBut the lecture is also designed to ensure the audience has the correct historical information about all of the events connected to 9\/11 \u2013 before and after the attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Goodale will also incorporate an academic element in which he explores two different viewpoints of conflict.<\/p>\n

He will present the argument of Dr. Samuel P. Huntington, a Harvard University professor and political scientist who worked in the National Security Council during the Carter Administration, contained in an article titled \u201cThe Clash of Civilizations?\u201d published in Foreign Affairs journal in 1993. Huntington\u2019s theory is that it will not be ideology, such as capitalism vs. communism, that will drive future conflict but rather fundamental cultural differences throughout the world that cannot be overcome.<\/p>\n

Dr. Goodale will then present a counter position from Dr. Wendell Bell in an article called \u201cHumanity\u2019s Common Values: Seeking a Positive Future,\u201d which was published in The Futurist magazine in 2004. Bell, a futurist and longtime sociology professor at Yale University, disagrees with the premise that countries fight over their differences and contends instead that the battles stem from similarities in human nature. He believed those qualities are evolving into social norms that promote cooperation and bind people together.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am grateful for the opportunity to serve as the Cicero lecturer this fall and am honored to discuss a subject that resonates with Americans on multiple levels,\u201d Dr. Goodale said. \u201cThis lecture will be a great way to connect with the community and celebrate our ties with one of the world\u2019s significant historical figures.\u201d<\/p>\n
