This Thurs @ 11 AM ET: Book Talk – The Non-Aligned World: Striking Out in an Era of Great Power Competition
A discussion of Jorge Heine's new book.
by the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft
As the rivalry between the United States, China, and Russia continues, a large number of states in Latin America, Asia, and Africa seek to work with all great powers. They do so in order to gain the most benefits from the global order and also form coalitions to solve regional and global challenges. In a co-authored new book titled, The Non-Aligned World: Striking Out in an Era of Great Power Competition, former Chilean diplomat and Quincy Institute non-resident fellow Jorge Heine explains the concept, its relevance in today’s world, and its implications for Latin America and other regions. Ambassador Heine will be in conversation with Sarang Shidore, director of the Global South Program at the Quincy Institute.
