Listen "World of the Right: Radical Conservatism and World Order"
Episode Synopsis
The audio track from a very timely lecture organised by the Stevenson Trust for Citizenship and co-hosted by the Scottish Council on Global Affairs.It took place at the University of Glasgow in April 2025.The speakers were Professors Rita Abrahamsen & Michael C. Williams, both at the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Ottawa, and both Leverhulme Visiting Professors in the United Kingdom.Professors Abrahamsen and Williams argue that while the radical Right is far from a unified political movement, its calls for sovereignty, civilizational orders, and multipolarity enable complex, strategic convergences with illiberal states such as China and Russia, as well as states and people in the Global South. The potential consequences for the future of the liberal world order remain wide-ranging.See also on YouTube. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
