Professor Wiesel opens his Conference of Nobel Laureates at the 92Y by inviting three other Nobel Laureates to respond in three minutes to the question of what currently pains them the most. Professor Roy Glauber, Nobel Prize winner in physics, worries about nuclear weapons, their growing availability and the lack of activity in working towards zero nuclear weapons. The economist, Professor Eric Maskin, concerns himself with the increase, rather than anticipated decrease, in inequality among developing countries subsequent to globalization and a possible solution. Professor of Chemistry, Mario Molina, works on the threat of climate change, society’s failure to respond, the politicization of this problem and the politicization of science in general. Professor Edmund Phelps, an economist, grows more pessimistic about China’s increase in exports, the probability of a trade war, America’s loss of economic dynamism and the difficulties of arresting that decline. Finally, Professor Wiesel answers his own question; he worried most about the globalization of fanaticism and suicide terrorism.
