Najam Interviewed on Global Politics and U.S.-China Tensions

In an interview on GNN‘s “Live with Dr. Shahid Masood,” Adil Najam, Dean of the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, discusses the changing shape of global politics.

During the show, Najam discusses rising United States-China tensions and what it means for the emerging world order. The far-ranging interview also looked at what these great power developments mean for the rest of the world. Najam argued that the world is clearly in a moment of global flux, but it is not at all clear where things will eventually end. “That is the nature of flux,” he argued, “it is the uncertainty of how things might change within the certainty that they are changing that makes our times so interesting, but also so potentially dangerous.”
