Virtual ASN is hosting an upcoming webinar, Geopolitics and the War in Ukraine. The panel will be held via Zoom on Wednesday, March 23rd from 1:00-2:30 PM ET (Eastern Time) / 6:00-7:30 PM EET (Central European Time) //

7:00-8:30 PM EET (Ukrainian--Eastern European Time).

In just a few weeks, Russia's further invasion of Ukraine has transformed the geopolitical landscape in Europe and beyond. While the West and its global allies rallied to denounce Russian aggression, other parts of the world (notably China and India) seem to be blaming the US. What are the appropriate historical analogies to make sense of these developments? Are we headed for a new Cold War between democracy and autocracy? What does the war imply for the future of global economic integration, already battered by the Covid-19 epidemic? This roundtable brings together respected scholars to address these large questions.

Participants:

James Goldgeier (American U, US)

Olexiy Haran (University Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Ukraine)

Gwendolyn Sasse (Humboldt U, Germany)

Peter Rutland (Wesleyan U, US)

David Shullman (Atlantic Council, US)

Moderator: Zsuzsa Csergö (Queens U, Canada)
