In cooperation with:
Rising Powers and The End of American World OrderAmitav Acharya (American Unversity)The age of Western hegemony is over. Whether or not America it-self is declining, the post-war liberal world order underpinned by US military, economic, and ideological primacy, and supported by global institutions serving its power and purpose, is coming to an end. But what will take its place? A Chinese world order? A reconstituted form of American hegemony? A regionalized system of global coopera-tion, including major and emerging powers? Amitav Acharya talks about his newest book The End of American World Order (Wiley& Sons, 2014).
Amitav Acharya is the UNESCO Chair in Transnational Challenges and Governance and Chair of the ASEAN Studies Center, American University, Washington DC. www.amitavacharya.com
