The current global order is being challenged and the possibility of a new global order being established is very real

The current global order is heavily influenced by the second world war, especially in regard to who gets to decide the rules and policies within it, and also who are more likely to be against it due to their roles and actions during the second world war

Can Singapore continue to thrive if countries continue shifting away from globalisation and continue to remain neutral in a time when countries are taking sides?

the current global order is American-led

alisha

the usa was more powerful after ww2 than it was before

why does every country allow/accept a global order which mainly champions values valued by the western world

As the global landscape slowly begins to change with China and many other countries beginning to challenge the current global order, it is up to the United States to choose whether if they want to continue to fight for their American oriented global order or give their role up as the global leader to new powers. The outcome of this situation would heavily influence the state of world for many years to come.

I am surprised that many countries as well as their leaders are able to tell that there is going to be a shift in the new global order. I am mainly interested to see how it plays out in the United States during the upcoming presidential elections and how their new stance on the global order would be like.

How will countries like Singapore survive in the future if the current and future models of the global order begin to drift from globalization and trading?

Saadhana

Globalisation and free trade is almost dead in this current world.

Saadhana

2024-01-09 05:52:32 UTC

will singapore and other countries that are dependent on globalisation be able to achieve success in the future?

The results of world war 2 played a big role in countries’ roles in global affairs today, such as how US is very dominant in the global affairs due to its victory in ww2.

Global order is never hinged on a single event and is ever-changing, it also seems to be influenced by multiple factors. Though the US played a dominant role in establishing the current global order, other factors aside from war are involved as well. Factors such as pandemics, like Covid-19 may also play a role, and another notable factor is the rise of new powers, like China, as China seeks to challenged the US-led global order

Global interconnectedness is not on a downward trajectory, however in the future these alliances will be made based on shared interest instead of regional concerns.

Faldo

It will be hard for the Chinese Yuan to one day replaced the US dollar as the primary global reserve currency, because of its declining birthrate hence gloomier economic forecast, BRICS uncertain future as well as needing to maintain a dominant posture in BRICS.

During the first two decades of the cold war, many new SEA states (formed by past interactions with external influences) actually tried to distance themselves from both the American and Soviet order. They chose to be part of a non-aligned movement and came together as ASEAN instead

Faldo

As countries under the ASEAN alliance continue to prosper and grow its importance in the global order, how might Southeast Asian advanced their own strategic economic and security objectives in a rapidly changing global order?

Hui Yee

2024-01-09 06:34:59 UTC

There is a need for ASEAN to take charge and shape the region in response to the changing world order, which was previously helmed by the United States as well as the Western world. This world order is changing due to factors such as the USA’s recent disinterest in world affairs as well as the rise of other global powers, leading to its more Western-centric values being contested and challenged.

Hui Yee

2024-01-09 06:40:16 UTC

How the USA’s role has had an influence on the global order becoming more multilateral, especially under the different leaderships in recent years that questioned their dominance

Hui Yee

How might ASEAN countries, especially Singapore, adapt their policies in line with the changing global order to ensure their survival?

Clarisse

With the world becoming increasingly chaotic/ uncertain, in what ways can ASEAN countries step up to ensure they continue to not only survive, but also prosper?

Cheryl

Due to various factors such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine and new technologies, the global order no longer reflects the present distribution and power globally. Also, the American people appear less enthusiastic than before to have their national wealth spent for the good of others.

Cheryl

2024-01-09 07:24:09 UTC

the future will not be a seamless reflection of previous orders. some principles like sovereignty and international law will still command great purchase but values such as liberal diplomacy, free markets and human rights will increasingly be subjected to contention

Cheryl

2024-01-09 07:24:11 UTC

what is important in the new global order so that international relations can be improved and strengthened?

yizhen

2024-01-09 08:32:30 UTC

the global order is at an inflection point and many values are to be discussed and subject to agreement

yizhen

2024-01-09 08:36:53 UTC

the role of ASEAN in navigating the complex challenges facing the region. how the organization adapts to these internal tensions while also responding to external geopolitical shifts.

what will happen to a country if it refuses to accept the global order

abigail

2024-01-09 08:55:17 UTC

the global order is underwritten by the US due to the power they posses aft winning the ww2

anying

The global order can be seen as a rule-based order. This ensures that there will be more structure when the countries are making a decision. However, various counties may interpret the laws differently which leads to conflicts and disagreements.

anying

SEA's current success has close relations as to how they have managed and dealt with the external influences previously. This led to several regional orders arising, allowing them to prosper and grow their economy the past 3 decades.

anying

2024-01-09 10:40:57 UTC

It will be difficult for all the countries to reach a consensus as different countries are starting to lean towards their own values and rules. Will this cause more problems and lead to more dire consequences in the long run?

jayden

american domination of the global order is fading and will be challenged by other influential countries.

jayden

2024-01-09 14:36:21 UTC

the united states presidential election is able to single handedly shape global order and politics for years

how can singapore remain netrual and stay out of trouble in an increasingly polarising world?

Ilyana

2024-01-10 00:49:50 UTC

The global order changes with time and may now be influenced by other countries rather than the Western world

ilyana

2024-01-10 00:52:11 UTC

the fact that events of the past heavily influence the present way of how global affairs are managed. ww2 is the reason why usa has the most influence compared to other countries

ilyana

2024-01-10 00:53:48 UTC

would singapore inevitably have to start taking sides whenever there is a conflict in the future or will we able to remain neutral

Jenevieve

2024-01-11 00:45:11 UTC

That the global order is American led which may lead to contention over who benefits from it more and whether it is truly fair

Jenevieve

2024-01-11 00:46:09 UTC

That something that happened years ago could have such a large impact on today's world and how it has such a large impact that it has not really changed despite the world progressing so much since then.

Jenevieve

2024-01-11 00:49:22 UTC

What can countries whose political stance is to remain neutral, eg. Indonesia, do when such situation gets increasingly out of hand. Does it mean some countries have to deviate from their 10++ years of political stance and end up having to pick sides? Or is it possible to keep navigating this and balancing both sides?

harsha

The global order enhances decision-making structure among countries but differing interpretations may lead to conflicts.

harsha

2024-01-11 19:00:33 UTC

that even after so many years after ww2 USA still had the strongest influence

harsha

how will Singapore be affected by the global order in the future?
