Julie Mazzei, Ph.D., associate professor and interim director of the School of Multidisciplinary Social Sciences and Humanities, in the College of Arts and Sciences at Kent State University, will take part in a virtual roundtable discussion with her co-authors of an edited volume "Paramilitary Groups and the State under Globalization: Political Violence, Elites and Security", edited by Jasmin Hristov, Jeb Sprague and Aaron Tauss (London: Routledge, 2022) on February 23 from 2-3:30 pm EST online via Zoom.

Mazzei wrote a chapter in the volume which examines the phenomenon of paramilitarism across Latin America and the Caribbean, Eastern Europe, Africa, and Asia, offering a nuanced perspective while identifying key patterns in the way paramilitary violence is implicated in processes of capital accumulation, state-building, and the reproduction of social power.
