Multipolarity isn’t a theory anymore. It’s the story unfolding in real time. That’s among the reasons why the 33rd Volume of @CIRSD Horizons is exceptionally well timed — and why it lands with unusual force. This new edition is built around one defining question: what does a truly multipolar world look like in practice — and what comes next? From power politics and economics to security, technology, and global governance, Horizons convenes voices that don’t just comment on events — they help shape them. Inside Volume 33 you’ll find exclusive interviews and essays by the Foreign Minister of UAE, His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan @ABZayed, alongside some of the most influential thinkers of our time: John Mearsheimer @MearsheimerJ, Jeffrey Sachs, Richard Haass @RichardHaass, George Friedman @George_Friedman, Ivan Krastev, and Kishore Mahbubani @mahbubani_k. The roster spans continents and convictions — from elected leaders and former top officials to leading scholars: Dimitris Keridis @DimKairidis, head of the Greek parliamentary majority; Pramit Chaudhuri @PramitWorld, former National Security Adviser of India; former foreign ministers Antônio Patriota (Brazil) and Mohammad Javad Zarif @JZarif (Iran); Luis Almagro @Almagro_OEA2015, former Secretary General of the Organization of American States; Jonathan Brown, policy head of Nigel Farage’s Reform Party; and a distinguished academic lineup including Dmitry Trenin (Russia), Wang Wen @WangwenR (China), Tim Murithi @tmurithi12 (Africa), Dejan Jović @DejanFpzg (Balkans), and Gordon Flake @lgflake (Australia) — among many others. Nowhere else can you find such a wide range of top-notch authors in one place — debating the same reality from fundamentally different vantage points. Our Volume 33 is out now!
