The international arena has become one of the main battlegrounds of our time. The problem, of course, is that reactionary movements—with their advocacy of isolation and denial—have transformed it into fertile ground for dystopia. And yet, although certain defeatist instincts might lead us to think otherwise, the global order is not the product of a grand, meticulous plan: it is the sum of spontaneous and creative responses to unprecedented problems.

In this colloquium, based on the essay Making Worlds – finalist of the 1st Essay Prize “Utopias that fit in the BOE” – some fundamental questions were raised to renew our geopolitical imagination: how to rethink universalism?, how to repoliticize international law?, how to build an international that does not repeat the mistakes of the past?
