The Speaker:
Peter Trubowitz is Professor of International Relations and Director of the Phelan US Centre at LSE and Associate Fellow at Chatham House. Before joining LSE, he was Professor of Government at the University of Texas at Austin. He has held visiting positions at Harvard, Princeton, Universidad de Chile, Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas in Mexico City, and Beijing Foreign Studies University, where he was the J. William Fulbright Distinguished Lecturer in American Foreign Policy. His most recent book is Geopolitics and Democracy: The Western Liberal Order from Foundation to Fracture (Oxford, 2023), with Brian Burgoon.
Support for the liberal international order is weakening in the Global West as well as the Global South. In this lecture, Prof. Peter Trubowitz discusses the sources of the anti-globalist backlash in Western democracies and its implications for China in a world where international power and authority are increasingly contested.
