World to Come: The Return of Trump and the End of the Old Order

With Donald Trump’s return to the White House, authors Mathew Burrows and Josef Braml argue that the U.S.-led liberal international order that defined global politics since WWII is coming to a close. From rising authoritarianism and regional conflicts to climate change, AI disruption, and economic malaise, their new book explores how today’s overlapping crises are reshaping the international landscape — and what may emerge from the turbulence.
This conversation will offer a candid, forward-looking assessment of the world’s emerging power dynamics and the implications for policymakers, strategists, and global citizens alike.

In a moment of global uncertainty and geopolitical transformation, join us at the Stimson Center for the launch of "World to Come" — a timely and provocative new book by eminent strategic forecasters Mathew Burrows and Josef Braml.
