Pembroke's Master, Dame Lynne Brindley DBE FRSA, is to chair a lecture entitled "The Arrogance of Power: Senator Fulbright's Concept and Today's World" which takes place on Saturday 21st September.

The lecture will be given by Professor Sir Adam Roberts FBA, Senior Research Fellow and Emeritus Fellow of International Relations at the University of Oxford. Sir Adam will consider whether Fulbright's famous 1966 publication was right in his own time, and if it is still relevant now.

Senator J William Fulbright was a Rhodes Scholar at Pembroke College and went on to a long career in the Senate, including as Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. His impact on foreign affairs in the USA is still felt today.
