DE NIEUWE WERELD ORDE: Haagsch College van Rob de Wijk

Wednesday 29 January 2020 2020

DUTCH SPEAKING PROGRAM

Brace yourself: the Chinese world order is coming. Aided by the financial crisis of 2009, President Trumps protectionism, the Brexit and rising nationalism in Europe will be the 21st century, the century of China, according to Rob de Wijk. When the People’s Republic celebrates its 100th anniversary, the dream of Chinese President Xi must have come true: China as the world’s leader.

In his Haagsch College, Rob de Wijk explains that this dream will come true if China becomes the leader of the new industrial revolution. The revolution that is about the Internet of Things, nanotechnology and Artificial Intelligence. As a result, the Western world order with its democracy, free market economy, international law, human rights and civil liberties is being overhauled. What does this mean for us? And can the tide be turned?
