Upcoming Events
Julia Ebner
Leader of the Violent Extremism Lab at the University of Oxford's Centre for the Study of Social Cohesion
Going Mainstream: How the Extreme Fringes Have Conquered Politics
Conspiracy theorists. Incels. White Nationalists. Once, these groups all belonged on the fringes of the political spectrum. Today, accelerated by the polycrisis of the pandemic, economic crisis, global conflict and rapid technological change, their ideas are becoming more widespread. Based on Julia’s undercover investigations for her latest book Going Mainstream, she explores: why outlandish ideas have taken hold and conspiracy myths are spreading faster than ever and, how, united by a shared sense of grievance and skepticism about institutions, radicalised individuals are influencing the mainstream as never before.
Parag Khanna
Founder and CEO of Alpha Geo
A New Way To Organize the World
Today’s domestic and international volatility reminds us that our current global indices ignore the most important metric for ranking nations: stability. The newly released Periodic Table of States (PTOS) fixes that. Find out which countries are the real role models for the world and why — and whether stability is a good barometer for investors.
Erling Kagge
Adventurer, philosopher and acclaimed author
The North Pole: The History of an Obsession
Throughout recorded human time, few places on Earth have inspired as much fascination as the North Pole. Blending memoir from his intrepid journey to the North Pole in 1990, along with history, philosophy and a stark warning about melting ice, Erling offers a profound meditation about nature and our place within it.
