About this Event
The Indo-Pacific has become one of the key centers of gravity in global power competition. Rising military tensions, shifting alliances, and contested territorial boundaries are reshaping the balance of power in the region. In a fireside chat moderated by Professor Stephen G. Brooks, Professor Ian Easton will examine the pressing defense and national security challenges, from China’s growing assertiveness to the vulnerability of regional democracies and the risks of a potential great-power conflict. The event will feature an assessment of the threats ahead and the strategic implications for the United States and its allies.

He previously served as a senior director at the Project 2049 Institute in Virginia and a visiting fellow at the Japan Institute for International Affairs in Tokyo. He holds an M.A. in China Studies from National Chengchi University in Taiwan and a B.A. in International Studies from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
