About the speaker
David Goldman is an American economist, music critic, and author, best known for his series of online essays in the Asia Times under the pseudonym Spengler. He is a Fellow at the Corvinus Institute for Advanced Studies in Budapest, a member of the Board of Advisors of Sino-Israel Government Network and Academic Leadership (SIGNAL), and a fellow at the Claremont Institute’s Center for the American Way of Life.
According to the Claremont Review of Books, the “Spengler” columns in the Asia Times have attracted readership in the millions. His analyses of global events have become highly regarded. Former C.I.A. National Intelligence Council Vice Chairman Herbert E. Meyer said, “Ask anyone in the intelligence business to name the world’s most brilliant intelligence service, and we’ll all give the same answer: Spengler. David P. Goldman’s ‘Spengler’ columns provide more insight than the CIA, MI6, and the Mossad combined.” Goldman is the author of You Will Be Assimilated: China’s Plan to Sino-form the World, How Civilizations Die: (And Why Islam is Dying Too),It’s Not the End of the World, It’s Just the End of You: The Great Extinction of the Nations and You Will Be Assimilated: China’s Plan to Sino-Form the World.
