Dr. Logan Cochrane, associate professor at the College of Public Policy (CPP), participated in a roundtable discussion during the International Studies Association Conference - Globalization, Regionalism and Nationalism: Contending Forces in World Politics, from April 6-9. 

Dr. Cochrane was part of a panel with faculty from the Catholic University of Chile and Dublin City University. They represented authors and editors in the International Political Economy (IPE) series from Palgrave Macmillan, which has focused on the ‘Global South’ for more than 35 years and published over a dozen titles in the last decade. 

The roundtable covered a range of salient issues such as the Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRICS)/Emerging Markets, conflict, development, gender, land, migration, regionalisms, supply chains, and more. Speakers reflected on the continuing evolution of such southern voices in the third decade of the 21st century and identified gaps in the mini-series as approaches, networks, norms, relationships, and technologies evolve.
