| Summary: | Excerpt: The world we live in is in constant flux. Nowadays, the rise of populism, protectionism, and extreme nationalism have cast a dark shadow on many societies. We have heard and read about it endlessly: leaders who employ divisive rhetoric to aggravate the anger and frustrations of multitudes; law enforcers who justify the use of brute force in the name of peace and order; unsustainable economic policies and reforms that promote the interests of a few; laws being weaponized to target ethnic minorities, the poor, and the marginalized; institutions that turn a blind eye to justice and the horrors of a forgotten past; and social media accounts that spread fake news and alternative facts. In this age of globalization, how should states manage societies and engage the rest of the world? |
