ABOUT THE TOPIC
The world is at an inflection point. The post-cold war period is over. A transition is underway to a new global order. Power dynamics have become increasingly fragmented as new poles of influence emerge. There is greater competition among major powers and a loss of trust between the global north and south. Nonetheless the imperative of cooperation in today’s world evident. How can states work together to transcend critical threats that affect them all?
