1. \u201cThe Crisis of Globalization?\u201d by Bilahari Kausikan, Chairman, Middle East Institute, National University of Singapore<\/p>\n

The question mark in the title of my talk is intended to be the point of my talk. \u2018Crisis\u2019 is an emotionally charged but carelessly over-used term. Globalisation is certainly under stress, but is it in \u2018crisis\u2019? What do we mean by \u2018crisis\u2019? The talk will explore these and other related questions.<\/p>\n

2. \u201cFrom Polarity to Universality: Reflections on Storytelling Globally\u201d by Yumi Araki, Multiplatform storyteller and journalist with experience in print, video, and radio<\/p>\n

Rapid globalization has shaped the way we tell stories–whether in academia, policy memos, or in the media. These narratives can often be quick to compare and contrast and underscore the differences that exist in our world. But what if there was another way?<\/p>\n
