Manly Writers' Festival 2024: Geopolitical Dynamics with Edward Acton Cavanough

Ukraine. The Gaza Strip. The Solomons. China. Israel. The USA. Five Eyes. The Quad. AUKUS. Russia. Taiwan. The South China Sea. Syria. BRICS. NATO. The Global South. North Korea. The G-20.

Where do we start when it comes to international issues and foreign policy? Why is it important for Australia—at the “arse end of the earth”—to have such a strong interest and presence in geopolitical issues and forums? What are the most pressing foreign policy issues for Australia, and the world? What will geopolitical dynamics hold for 2024 and beyond?

Join us for the Closing Event of the Manly Writers’ Festival with a Q&A-style discussion.

Host: Michael Brissenden
