Opinion - Outrage at Munich

Amrita Narlikar argues that while U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance’s speech at the Munich Security Conference stirred outrage in Europe, it also introduced valuable perspectives that deserve attention.

I don't think people are fully appreciating the shift in worldview associated with this version of economic security. It's a zero-sum, nasty, brutish, and short, hungry hungry hippos world, and I'm not sure any conception of international law or global governance can survive it.
By the way, don't ignore the other news of a pause in the FCPA. That's a big one, too.

Why? US firm competitiveness is US security.

That countries of Global South have interests & values, too (akin to those in West)!
Co-authored a piece on this in German for @mabialecki.bsky.social's Internationale Politik: internationalepolitik.de/de/was-ist-s... & English version in Global Policy: www.globalpolicyjournal.com/blog/29/08/2...
Other countries have domestic politics, too.

In case there are any friends of more-than-humans here, here's why I was esp. glad to be a part of the T20 Taskforce 3👇🏽I would have been even happier if G20 Declaration had reflected the same level of ambition as TF3 statement does (t20ind.org/wp-content/u...). But at least we made a start via TF3.

Happy & honoured to be part of G20 T20
Taskforce 3 & to have contributed to #TF3 statement that prioritises not only human-centric #sustainabledevelopment, but (true to idea of वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्) also pioneers the way on recognising importance of "well-being of all species".
