Financial Issues Forum Presents Fareed Zakaria with Ian Bremmer on “Age of Revolutions”

On April 16, 2024 two of the world’s most influential thought leaders in international affairs—Fareed Zakaria and Ian Bremmer—took to the stage of the Gabelli School of Business McNally Amphitheatre to discuss a broad range of pressing topics and Zakaria’s newly released book, "Age of Revolutions: Progress and Backlash from 1600 to the Present." The pair focused on everything from continuous global unrest and conflict to the upcoming U.S. elections, but came back repeatedly to the theme of Zakaria’s book—revolution, including four present-day revolutions: globalization, technology, identity, and geopolitics, which have produced profound disruptions and pervasive anxiety and our identity.
