Room 24.112 (Mercè Rodoreda Building)
Conference
Javier Solana (ESADEgeo)

Javier Solana has been on the frontline of the most important events in international politics of the last few decades, both in his role as NATO Secretary-General (1995-1999) and High Representative for the European Union’s Common Foreign and Security Policy (1999-2009). During his international mandates, he witnessed up close the effects of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the end of the Cold War, and the emergence of a multipolar world. In this session, Dr. Solana will analyze the new world order, offering a practitioner’s perspective on the global governance required to handle the political, economic and social challenges it brings.
