How has the EU recalibrated its approach to the Global South? New paper by Dahrendorf Scholar Mohammed Amaan Asim argues the shift is clear: from norms to realpolitik. Dialogue over ultimatums, trade over conditionality. Read more: www.sant.ox.ac.uk/wp-content/u...

Hungary’s illiberal governance became a model for Trump, argues Dahrendorf scholar Chaya Steinsaltz. She examines how Orbán’s “enemy” politics, autocratic legalism, and civilisational rhetoric were adapted by the new U.S. authorities. Read paper here ➡️ www.sant.ox.ac.uk/wp-content/u...

Before Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska, it is worth recalling the article by @fromtga.bsky.social: "For the foreseeable future Europe will face a revanchist Russia determined to regain effective control over as much of its former empire as it can" timothygartonash.substack.com/p/the-fight-...

9 years ago today, a narrow majority of Brits voted for #Brexit. Even bigger than economic cost is that to Britain's soft power, international clout & sense of strategic direction. How can you be a 'bridge' with no firm foundations on either the EU or (now) the US river bank?

“Trump will never stop being hostile toward Europe.” An insightful take on US–EU relations by foreign policy experts Robert Kagan (Brookings) and @dimitarbechev.bsky.social (Dahrendorf Programme). It's in German—but easy to follow and well worth translating www.aufruhr-magazin.de/europa/rober...

Is antiliberalism the new global ideology? Interesting take on Robert Kagan's Dahrendorf lecture by @ezgibasaran.bsky.social ezgibasaran.substack.com/p/im-not-sur...

“I’m not sure we will have free and fair elections in two years in the United States,” said Robert Kagan at Oxford
Kagan delivered the prestigious Dahrendorf Lecture at St Antony's College, Oxford, as a requiem for the American order—and called on Europe to re-arm.

Key insights from the Dahrendorf workshop on Europe–China relations: 🔹Trump policies brought the EU and China closer. 🔹It's the right time to rethink and restructure the partnership. 🔹Opportunities in trade, security, tech & climate. 🔹Shared status quo power = stronger global influence.

1. Only 22% of EUropeans say they regard the US as an 'ally'. Less than Russians who say that of Chinese and vice versa. For me one of the most startling results of our latest global poll with @ECFR www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

New polling says much of the world will welcome Trump. Europe will need to be more transactional abroad – but less so at home, writes Guardian columnist Timothy Garton Ash

Is there a "Trump effect" on the transatlantic alliance? 🌍 🇪🇺 Just 1 in 5 Europeans now view the U.S. as an ally—a sharp decline from two years ago. 🇺🇸 In contrast, half of Americans see the EU as an ally, with a rising share (24% → 32%) calling it a necessary partner. What’s driving this shift? 🤔

What does Trump’s return mean for geopolitics? Could it even de-escalate conflicts? 🤔 Interestingly, our poll reveals optimism about easing tensions in Ukraine 🇺🇦, the Middle East, and U.S.-China relations 🇺🇸🇨🇳:
