Senior Fellow and Director, Center for Defense Concepts and Technology

Asymmetrical warfare is one of the oldest forms of warfare. Adversaries use technology, tactics, and a host of strategies to seek and exploit their opponents’ vulnerabilities. On October 3, a Hudson Institute event will evaluate the advantages Taiwan could gain from asymmetrical approaches that leverage its geography, technological skill, and other innate features to enhance its defense.

Hudson Senior Fellow Seth Cropsey will moderate a panel that includes Rear Admiral Thomas Brown (USN, ret.), Bryan Clark of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, and Martin Murphy, a visiting fellow at the Corbett Centre for Maritime Policy Studies at King’s College, London.
