This video examines why the global order forged after the Cold War is no longer merely weakening, but actively breaking down, and why that breakdown carries an escalating risk of a broader systemic war. Prof. Jiang Xueqin lays out a stark assessment: the world has entered a phase where old rules no longer apply, yet no new balance of power has been agreed upon. In that vacuum, great powers revert to coercion, proxy conflicts, and strategic denial, all while insisting publicly that peace and stability remain intact.

The discussion moves across history and geopolitics to explain why this moment is uniquely volatile. Drawing parallels to the pre–World War I era, Prof. Jiang argues that rising powers are once again trapped inside security architectures designed for a bygone hierarchy. Europe’s approach to Russia, America’s confrontation with China, and the scramble over Eurasian trade corridors all reflect the same refusal to accommodate shifting economic and military realities. Rather than reform institutions or accept multipolarity, Western leadership clings to moralized narratives of good versus evil, mistaking slogans for strategy. The result is an illusion of escalation control, where limited wars are treated as manageable even as every incentive points toward expansion and entanglement.

At its core, the video challenges viewers to confront an uncomfortable truth: history suggests that transitions between hegemonic systems are rarely peaceful, and denial only accelerates the slide toward catastrophe. Prof. Jiang’s analysis does not predict war as an inevitability, but as a consequence of political paralysis, strategic arrogance, and the inability to let go of dominance in a world that has already moved on.
