The End of the Old Order? Mapping Power Dynamics in Our Fragmented World

In an era shaped by relentless systemic shocks — from geopolitical conflicts to economic crises — the foundations of the international order are under unprecedented strain. Is the old order truly coming to an end? And if so, what comes next?

Join us for a thought-provoking panel discussion exploring the deep connections between domestic instability and the emergence of a fragmented, multipolar global landscape. As traditional hegemons retrench and new, transactional powers step forward, the tectonic plates of global politics are shifting in real time.

Our distinguished speakers will examine:

How internal political and social instability fuels global transformation

Who stands to gain — and who risks losing — in the emerging world order

How states, international organizations, and global enterprises can build resilience when the rules of diplomacy are being rewritten

Speakers:
– Andrés de Castro Garcia, Professor of UNED University, Visiting Fellow at Mathias Corvinis Collegium
– Ramachandra Byrappa, Senior Research Fellow at HIIA, Assistant Professor at ELTE
– Mihály Rosonczy-Kovács, Director of Foreign Relations, Nézőpont Intézet
