Virtual Event

When Foreign Affairs published its first issue in 1922, the world was still reeling from the aftershocks of World War I. In 2022, the world is once again consumed by crises, including Russia’s war in Ukraine, a global pandemic, and American democracy under attack.

How did the events of the last century shape the geopolitical landscape today? And what are the forces that will drive the next? Please join Foreign Affairs Editor Daniel Kurtz-Phelan and leading scholars Francis Fukuyama, John Lewis Gaddis, and Margaret MacMillan for a conversation offering historical perspective on this pivotal moment in world politics.

This discussion is part of our centennial event series, marking the 100th anniversary of Foreign Affairs.
