Vortrag in englischer Sprache von Prof. Seth Schindler (Professor of Urban Politics and Development, University of Manchester) zum Thema: "Geopolitical Rivalry in the 21st Century and the Renegotiation of Globalization".
About the talk:
The post-war international order is in tatters and geopolitical rivalry has intensified to a level not seen since the end of the Cold War. The central argument of this talk is that contemporary geopolitical rivalry exhibits a novel spatial logic. Rather than try to contain adversaries or secure territory, the US, China, EU, and regional powers seek to control geostrategic networks that afford structural power. The talk will demonstrate how the result is a renegotia-tion of globalization, and explore how developing countries, firms, and sub-national governments are responding by implementing strategies to reduce their exposure to geopolitical risk.
About the speaker:
Seth Schindler is Professor of Urban Politics and Development at the University of Manchester. His research focuses on the ways that contemporary geopolitical rivalry impacts people and places worldwide. He is the co-founder of the Second Cold War Observatory and Deputy Director of the Manchester Urban Institute. He previously coordinated the Global Studies Program at Humboldt University of Berlin and is an alumnus of the University of Freiburg's Global Studies Program.
