ASC Lunch seminar: Capital, Citizens and Ruling Elites: Asia and the West in the Red Sea Littoral

The emergence of non-Western economies such as Brazil, the United Arab Emirates, China and Malaysia has resulted in the growth of sovereign wealth funds, government-owned banks and state corporations. This has reversed the assumed path of globalization – commonly associated with market-based capitalism and the free transfer of commodities and people. This presentation investigates the implications of the re-routing of globalization specifically for the citizens of Djibouti and its strategically located Red Sea port, which currently hosts the military of some of the world’s most powerful states, such as France, the US, China and Japan.
