iCal calendarFrom the impact of the election of Donald Trump and China's economic woes to the erosion of globalization and the rise of conflict, humanity is entering a deeply uncertain phase of geopolitics. What are the challenges and consequences of these emerging and evident trends for the international system and the states that operate in it? This lecture ponders some of these developments and considers the path ahead for the small and medium sized countries in Southeast Asia and the Baltics.

Rajaratnam School of International Studies, and currently Dean of College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences at NTU Singapore.
