  • LSE Phelan US Centre Examines Future of American Global Influence
    May 30, 2026, 3:12 PM EDT. At the LSE Phelan US Centre event on April 2, 2026, experts debated the "End of the America era?". Professor G. John Ikenberry argued the American era and liberal international order face challenges but will rebound, emphasizing past resilience of global systems. In contrast, Professor Ayşe Zarakol separated American hegemony from the liberal order, contending the latter is effectively dead due to declining trust and institutional support, suggesting a potential shift to a coercion-based, isolationist U.S. approach. The discussion highlighted divergent views on America's global role as autocracies rise and U.S. focus turns inward, reflecting uncertainty about the future of international cooperation and leadership.
