In this International Relations session, Dr Kaeten Mistry, Associate Professor of American History in the School of Politics, Philosophy and Area Studies at University of East Anglia, will run an interactive talk for students on New World Order: Is The Trump Administration Breaking From The Past To Reshape The United States & Global Affairs?

What is going on in the world today? What’s the meaning behind the words and actions of the Trump administration? These are questions we hear today daily.

This interactive session tackles them by exploring whether it represents a new era for the United States and global affairs. We’ll delve into the past to better comprehend the present. Do modern day conflicts, political scandals, tariffs and trade wars, and the language of MAGA reveal a new world order?

The session draws on politics, history, international relations, geography and law, to show how we can navigate through the uncertainty and noise. It will supplement student learning by providing tools to examine what the second Trump term means for the United States and the world, as well as our relationship to it all.
