Brown Club UK is co-hosting a fireside chat with the Georgetown MSFS Club UK titled "Cooperation and Competition in the New Global Order," on Tuesday, 8 September.
Is the U.S.-led liberal order of international norms and institutions still standing? Or are we witnessing, in Mark Carney’s words, “a rupture in the world order, ending a pleasant fiction for a harsh reality” of unbound geopolitics?
Join your fellow alumni and our high profile global affairs experts for an intimate fireside chat as we unpack the stakes: human rights amid global flux; climate imperatives clashing with intensifying competition; nations fracturing historic alliances and forging new ones.
Don't miss this timely discussion on the global order — the dream, the reality, and the uncertain road ahead.
Location: The Artworkers’ Guild, 6 Queen Sq WC1N 3AT. Nearest tube: Holborn and Russell Square
Tickets: Early bird tickets: £13.50; Regular price tickets: £16.00
