On September 30, 2016 Salvatore Babones, Associate Professor of Sociology & Social Policy, University of Sydney, delivered at RIAC a lecture on the new world order led by the United States. He noted that in the second millennium, the entire population of the world is divided into “the American world,” those who oppose it, and those who want to be part of it. Even representatives of the Russian, Chinese and Iranian elites seek to send their children to study at American and British universities.

On September 30, 2016 Salvatore Babones, Associate Professor of Sociology & Social Policy, University of Sydney, delivered at RIAC a lecture on the new world order led by the United States.

He noted that in the second millennium, the entire population of the world is divided into “the American world,” those who oppose it, and those who want to be part of it. Even representatives of the Russian, Chinese and Iranian elites seek to send their children to study at American and British universities.

The ideas expressed in the course of the lecture sparked off a lively dispute among the participants, who discussed recent developments in the world in the context of this thesis, including the US role in the conflict in the Middle East and Ukraine, as well as the Russian position in the existing world order.

The scope of the issues discussed was really impressive, and they varied from the topical historical and philosophical theories to the history of China in the modern age.
