China is becoming ever more important to global affairs. But political and geopolitical challenges, as well as the covid-19 pandemic, have diminished Europeans’ ability to engage with Chinese thinkers and understand their views and ideas about the world.

Countries such as China and Russia, but also India, Brazil, Indonesia, South Africa and Nigeria, have their own ideas about what the international order should look like. However, apart from their ambition to overcome Western dominance, their respective visions for a new order do not always coincide. Consequently, catch-all terms such as “Global South” do not do justice to the actual diversity of views. In “The World after the West”, Mark Leonard discusses China, Brazil, Russia, India, Southeast Asia and the USA with his guests. What visions of order and power are there in the world and how do they relate to the European one? What potential do new regional and ideological clubs and institutions have and what effects can be expected for Europe?
