Peter Frankopan, bestselling author of The Silk Roads, transformed how many of us understand the history of the world. Frankopan has long argued a Europe-focused understanding of history has led us to mistakenly believe we're living through uniquely turbulent times.
Frankopan returns to the Intelligence Squared stage to reveal the seven historical forces shaping today's world, including Trump's territorial ambitions, Russia's war in Ukraine, China's growing global influence, AI, and the battle for critical resources. He'll draw on an extraordinary depth of knowledge to make sense of the present day - and take your questions in a live audience Q&A.
