Địa chính trị trong Thế kỷ 21 (Cập nhật lớn năm 2025)

The rules are shifting. Fast.

For decades, the world followed a clear script — the US led, institutions enforced, and wars followed familiar lines. That era is over.

Now we’re watching something new emerge:

• Old alliances falling apart

• China and Russia rewriting the playbook

• Europe trying to stand on its own

• Global institutions losing control

• The US unsure of its own role

But the biggest problem? Most people are still stuck thinking in 20th-century terms.

Why this course exists

If you feel lost trying to make sense of today’s global mess, you’re not alone.

• News coverage is shallow

• Most lectures are full of jargon

• And politicians sound like they’re reading from outdated scripts

This course gives you something better: a clear, structured way to understand how power is shifting in real time — and what that means for the future.

Whether you’re a student, a policymaker, or just someone who wants to sound smarter at dinner, this course is for you.
