China and the United States in Latin America: Disputed Hegemonies?
Dialogue table organized by the General Secretariat and FLACSO Argentina
This dialogue aims to discuss, from a multidimensional perspective, the drivers and processes accelerators or catalysts of the crisis facing the international system and its repercussions in Latin America and the Caribbean. These repercussions are largely shaped by the new conflict between the US and China and accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The discussion will consider factors such as politics, economics, security, energy, and health, among others.
