Professor Eoin McLaughlin, Panmure House Senior Fellow, recently welcomed experts from around the world for “From the Suez to the Hormuz”, a workshop exploring the history and global implications of today’s geopolitical and economic challenges.

Bringing together specialists in economics, political science, international relations and history, discussions examined key issues including:

🔸 Energy Security and the importance of policy flexibility.
🔸Understanding past episodes of hegemonic transition.
🔸The different lessons the British, French, and Israeli’s drew from the Suez crisis.
🔸How governments are responding to the vulnerabilities and opportunities created by global economic interdependence.
🔸How European political movements are responding differently to shifting US trade policies and growing economic uncertainty.

Thank you to Martin Chick, Eoin McLaughlin, Andrew Schein, Chris Meissner, Maha Rafi Atal, Pieter Zhao, Vignesh Ram, Samuel Rogers, Ibrahim Murat Kara, Les Oxley FRSNZ, Mark Schaffer for sharing their invaluable insights.
