Carving Up the World: Lessons From the Past   

As the post-World War II global political order has fractured over recent years, major powers are looking to reshape the world in ways that will extend their respective spheres of influence. Are the United States, China, Russia, and other aspiring powers on an inevitable collision course? How will the countries in their paths respond to these pressures? Will the emerging global political landscape be marked by even greater conflict and upheaval than we are witnessing today? This lecture will explore the dynamics of this new era of great power competition and will draw on lessons from the past that might help us understand what to expect moving forward. Join Dr. Harry Chernotsky, well known to OLLI audiences for his annual appearances with Dr. Jeffrey Morton in the Professor’s Professor series, for this timely presentation.

Live In-Person with Video Catch-up. Available 2-3 business days after the live lecture.
