Battle of Ideas Festival: 18-19
October, Barbican
INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS DEBATES
Dear all,
The tenth annual Battle
of Ideas festival is drawing ever closer, and I thought you might be
interested in hearing about the INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS debates that
will be held throughout the course of the festival weekend.
The Battle of Ideas festival, organised by The Institute of Ideas, provides a
forum for free thinking, debate and discussion on a host of topics. It will
take place on the weekend of 18
and 19 October at the Barbican
in London, one of the world’s leading art centres.
Over 2,000
delegates will attend more than 80 sessions during the weekend. And hundreds
of insightful speakers from across the globe, representing a wide range of
disciplines and viewpoints, will tackle some of the most pressing issues of our
time.
INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS debates include: In conversation:
Israel × America: the
twilight years? × Whose borders
are they anyway: the nation state unravelling? × Ukraine: Cold
War rebooted? × Do they mean
us? International views on Britain ×
Young Arab
voices: has the Arab Spring made us more polarised? And Feeding the
world: can we engineer away hunger?
