IIEA Insights: Robert Kaplan
Release Date:
'What looms for the Greater Middle East?'
Great power competition is intensifying and democracy has lost its allure. Nowhere are these trends more evident than in what Robert D Kaplan calls the 'Greater Middle East'. In this IIEA Insights discussion he highlights some of the key points made in his magisterial survey of the region in 'The Loom of Time: Between Empire and Anarchy from the Mediterranean to China', his latest book published in 2023. He also discusses the future of Israel/Palestine, and that conflict’s wider implications in the post October 7 era.
