Paul Rogers: The Insecurity Trap
Join us for a crucial conversation with Professor Paul Rogers, one of the most forward-thinking analysts of our time, as he discusses his latest book, A Crowded, Glowering World: Paths to a Sustainable and Secure Future. This talk will explore the interconnected challenges we currently face and deliver crucial insights into understanding this global ‘poly-crisis’. A respected authority on conflict analysis, Rogers has been remarkably prescient in his predictions, including the long-term ramifications of the Iraq War and the evolving dangers of climate change.
