DEBATE RECAP | Is the liberal world order in crisis?
We’re all living in a moment of real strain. More people feel alone than ever. Many of us are laboring to stay healthy, get ahead, or simply keep up. As individuals struggle and societies fracture, a question surfaces: What role does family play in helping us thrive?
Some believe the answer lies in family structure; some say it lies in the quality of family relationships. And still others argue that we’re asking too much of families in the first place—expecting them to shoulder social, economic and cultural pressures that should be shared by governments, institutions and communities.
Join Paul Dolan, Chika Ezeanya Esiobu, Shareefa Fadhel and Wendy R. Wang for a powerful debate on whether the concept of family needs to be defended, reinvented or simply re-centered in a world that’s changing faster than ever.
