This article builds on the introduction to this Special Forum and 鈥檚 original argument about the arrival of the multi-order world. It discusses the foundations of Putin鈥檚 claimed vision for a different kind of 鈥減olarity鈥�, allegedly 鈥渘on-hierarchical鈥�, 鈥渆qual鈥�, and 鈥渟elf-regulatory鈥�, but in reality deeply hegemonic and internally conformist. In this article, I argue that not only is Putin鈥檚 vision seriously misguided, but it also fails to recognise the increasing diversity within Central Eurasia. It is furthermore 鈥減ropagated鈥� by unsustainable means, including force, coercion, disinformation, and fear. I will first explore principles of order-making, focusing on its 鈥渟ofter aspects鈥�—social memory, shared history/culture, and imaginaries of the good life—and relate them to 鈥渟ameness鈥� and 鈥渄iversity鈥� principles of the multi-order world, as more nuanced anticipatory governance. I apply this framework to Putin鈥檚 Eurasian order-building efforts to determine this order's resilience. Guess what my answer is?

Exceptionally grateful to and , and to the journal editors and reviewers for their helpful comments and support! To - for Open Access :), and to my fellow contributors for insightful discussions we all had as part of the project - Anticipating Governance in a Multi-Order World :).

Delighted to have shared my book (OUP2025) at the School of Transnational Governance at the invitation of . I am exceptionally grateful to both Trine as Chair, and as my discussant; as well as to the meticulous organisation of the event by the STG staff and of course, to the audience and their thought-provoking questions, always. The AGMOW project, focusing on is more topical than ever before: it looks at the crisis of the Liberal International Order, and the disruption of the Global Rules-Based Order, and the emergence of other alternatives. Above all, the project drills into how orders emerge and are situated, at the sameness and diversity; and this is where resilience-governance, premised on societal agency (or Community of Relations) becomes to play a decisive role, for orders to be resilient, and sustainable, in a crisis-prone world. Watch the space, for Special Forums in relation to AGMOW, and new discussions - to be continued!

Happy to report a preprint of my article 'Belarus: Five Years On' in the US J, Special Forum with a focus on #Belarus then and now. I discuss whether the uprising of 2020 was just another short-lived revolt or if it marked the moment of irreversible #change in the history of #Belarus, which I call elsewhere a moment of people-forming (peoplehood). Belarus' active #civil #society demonstrates incredible #creativity in designing its own alternative futures, and this process is unstoppable.
