👥 Upcoming Panel: At the Crossroads of a New Monroe Doctrine

Latin America and the Indo-Pacific in a changing security order

❗ Subscriber-only panel featuring Dr. R. Evan Ellis and Eric Huang

Why this matters now:
US actions in Mexico and Venezuela, and the escalating crisis with Iran, could have profound implications for security strategy and trade across Latin America to the Indo-Pacific—with major implications for the upcoming Trump–Xi summit in Beijing.

There is much to discuss, and although events are still unfolding, this seemed like an appropriate moment for an econVue subscriber panel conversation.

Recent developments are sending geopolitical shockwaves far beyond the regions directly involved. Governments in Latin America, Japan and Taiwan are reassessing assumptions about sovereignty, deterrence, and alliance commitments. China’s leadership is no doubt recalibrating its options after US strikes in Iran.

Are we seeing the early contours of a new Monroe Doctrine in US strategic thinking, one that extends beyond the Western Hemisphere, as Washington navigates a more contested global order?

This discussion will explore the intersection of security policy, geoeconomics, and state capacity, including the role of non-state actors, supply chains, and strategic deterrence.

Introductory remarks by our speakers will be recorded, but the Q&A session will be off the record.
