What can statesmen learn from the most dangerous confrontation in human history to better address challenges of war and peace today?
Directions:
  • Participants submit an original lesson from the Cuban Missile Crisis that answers contest question.
  • The text of the submission must be no more than 300 words.
  • When writing lesson, participants should try to distill lesson into one topic sentence; remainder of submission should provide supporting evidence and argument. (See below for an example.)
