Join Professor Ikenberry and the Oxford International Relations Society for a discussion on the West, East and South and the competition to shape global order. How will the three worlds--represented by the United States and Europe, China and Russia, and the grouping of non-western developing nations--shape struggles over rules and institutions for the coming decades ahead? More importantly, will the support and cooperation of the Global South tilt the balance towards the West's or the East's favor? The event features a Q&A from the audience, as well as discussions on ongoing conflicts and crises in Ukraine, the Middle East, and the Taiwan Strait.
