Gain a deeper understanding of the dynamics impacting world economics, conflicts, and alliances.
NEW this semester! Join us in this 1st ever Chesapeake Forum program hosted by the Centreville YMCA, where we will take a deep dive into events that are affecting our world. This discussion group will follow a format similar to Great Decisions.
Geopolitics is the framework that helps us understand the intricate interfusion of the world’s economic, military, political, and geographic landscape. With Bob’s guidance, we will tackle contemporary foreign policy challenges, world conflicts, and economic opportunities. We’ll avoid biased media-driven narratives or online chatter — addressing insights based on geopolitical trends presented by reputable and objective sources including RANE/Worldview, Geopolitical Futures, video chronicles, etc.
Several days before each weekly session, timely and applicable analyses will be distributed to participants to guide our discussions.
What to expect:
Expect great discussions that provide a deeper understanding of the dynamics impacting the world’s economics, conflicts, and alliances.
Feedback from Bob’s past courses with us:
“I always enjoy the lively discussions and new ideas the participants bring to the class, even if I can’t get a word in edgewise!”
“Interesting, eye-opening discussions. Many points of view offered by participants with a wide range of perspectives and backgrounds.”
