Course Description

Overview

Explore the changing dynamics of global leadership in this 16-minute TED talk. Examine the challenges of a world where no single country or alliance can meet global leadership demands. Delve into the concept of Americanization and its relationship with globalization. Analyze the evolving US perspective on the world and vice versa. Journey through a rapid overview of current international politics, including discussions on the driverless world, the G20, and regional focuses on the Middle East, Asia, Europe, Africa, and the United States. Consider whether the US is prepared to lead by example rather than force, and reflect on the implications of this shift in global power dynamics.
