About the Ben Feringa Lecture 2022:
“Geopolitical challenges: we come from a period of 200 years of building international collective security. From the Congress of Vienna via the League of Nations via the European Union and NATO to the UN today. Now that we are confronted with so many creeping and acute crises, what should we do next? Will the new geopolitical challenges also translate into new waves of political violence, revolt or even revolutions? If we see collective security as something broader than just between states, but also as states collectively against terror, this is an important question.”
