My guest for today’s episode is Dr. John R Emery from the University of Oklahoma (Boomer Sooner). Dr. Emery is an Assistant Professor of International Security in the department of International and Area Studies at the University of Oklahoma. His research focuses on issues of technology in international relations, ethics of war, security studies, nuclear wargaming, human-machine interaction and political theory. He is a member of the 2021-2024 Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) Project on Nuclear Issues (PONI) Mid-Career Cadre, which brings together nuclear experts from technical, policy, academic, and military backgrounds. Dr. Emery has appeared on this show twice before to talk about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Check the archives! His background in nuclear wargaming makes him a perfect guest to talk about Christopher Nolan’s most recent film - Oppenheimer! You can find Dr. Emery and his research at his website.
