• ‘Westlessness: the great global rebalancing’ by Samir Puri

  • EU Council bibliography
  • 23 Deireadh Fómhair 2024

Amid so many near-apocalyptic accounts of a shifting balance of power, Samir Puri’s analysis in Westlessness: the great global rebalancing provides a sober and even optimistic counterpoint.
