His previous presentations have been well-received, making this upcoming session highly anticipated by local attendees.

Zeihan’s book delves into the unraveling of global supply chains and trade networks, offering a compelling look at what might come next for the global order. Barnett will guide the audience through these complex ideas, providing context and analysis from his own wealth of experience.
