The global order is changing. The 21st century will be marked by many competing sources of global power. Across politics, economics, culture, military strength, and more, a new group of countries has growing influence over the future of the world. Not only are countries like China, India, Russia, Brazil, South Africa, and others challenging the global order, but there are also major issues which cut across national boundaries that are influencng the global order. As this new world unfolds, America will increasingly need other nations, and they will need us in order to build a better future. Leadership and cooperation in this situation require understanding the world as it really exists. Students at this conference will hear an analysis of the dynamics driving the diffusion, redistribution, and redefinition of power around the globe and have the opportunity to suggest policy options for how the United States can continue to play a global leadership role in an age of multiple rising powers.
