The Hoover History Lab and Northeast Asia History Working Group hosted The Russia-DPRK Alliance & the Development of the Military-Economic Complex in North Korea on April 1, 2026.

H.R. McMaster and Vladimir Kara-Murza discuss the state of the war in Ukraine, the prospects and perils facing Russia's opposition, the shifting currents of Russian domestic politics, the effort to organize the Russian diaspora into a coherent political force, and prospects of a post-Putin Russia.

Hoover Institution fellow Andrew Roberts presents the life and legacy of Napoleon Bonaparte. Roberts examines his military genius demonstrated in campaigns across Europe and Egypt, his transformative reforms of French society and law, and his complex character combining ruthless ambition with intellectual depth.
