Princeton resident Lukas Milevski has received the U.K.’s prestigious 2010 Trench Gascoigne Prize for his essay ‘A Collective Failure of Grand Strategy: The West’s Unintended Wars of Choice.’
Awarded annually since 1874 by the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies, an independent Whitehall institution established in 1831, the prize was presented at the annual Chief of the Defence Staff lecture by Gen. Sir David Richards. It will be published shortly in the RUSI Journal.
Mr. Milevski has just completed his MA in Strategic Studies at the University of Reading and has been offered an internship in Brussels at NATO Headquarters, in the Defence Policy Planning Division’s Policy and Capability Directorate, pending security clearance. In the interim he will work at the British American Security Information Council’s Washington, D.C., office.
Mr. Milevski holds a BA in War and Security Studies from the University of Hull. He is a graduate of International School of Latvia and Princeton Charter School.
