DESCRIPTION:Drawing upon his new book\, The Once and Future World Order\, 
 the speaker will reflect on China’s past\, current and future world orde
 r-making\, addressing the opportunities and challenges it faces in reshapi
 ng global governance\, Asian security and great power relations. He argues
  that while the end of the US- or West-dominated world order has much to d
 o with China’s rise\, this does not mean a Chinese-dominated world order
  is emerging. Rather\, China will be one of the key players in a multiplex
  world\, rather than a conventional multipolar or G2 world.  The speaker c
 alls for revisiting the traditional notion of a Chinese World Order develo
 ped by scholars such as John K. Fairbank.  \n\nAmitav Acharya is Distingui
