Event Description
<p>Join the Ash Center for an in-person book talk with <strong>Danielle Allen, </strong>James Bryant Conant University Professor, director of the Allen Lab for Democracy Renovation and author of “Radical Duke: How One Aristocrat and the American Revolution Transformed Britain.”</p><p>In “Radical Duke,” Allen argues that the sparks of the “Age of Revolution” were ignited<strong>—</strong>not in the thirteen American Colonies or in the barricades in France, but in Britain<strong>—</strong>largely through the efforts of a reform-minded aristocrat. The book tells the lesser story of Charles Lennox, the third Duke of Richmond, who, from 1767 to 1782, was a leading voice against Crown overreach. Lennox fought against political corruption, disenfranchisement and attacks on civil rights and liberties.</p><p>By examining the political innovations of Lennox and other British reformers, Allen offers lessons that can be applied for contemporary political systems and for those seeking to transform them through reform.</p><p>The event will feature remarks from Allen followed by an audience Q&A.</p><p>A catered lunch will be <strong>available starting at 11:45am.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Event Details</strong></p><p>This event is open to Harvard ID holders only and registration is required.</p><p>The Ash Center encourages individuals with disabilities to participate in its events.
