Abstract

Debates on world order have intensified following Mark Carney’s Davos address, which cast the present moment as “one of rupture rather than transition”. Carney’s “Rupture”, in this article does not signify collapse or replacement, but a shift in authority within existing institutions. The liberal order remains in place, but the claims that once underpinned its legitimacy, especially Western leadership and universal norms, no longer command the same authority. Global South institutions have become more visible in global governance, with China playing a central part. Rupture thus points less to a new order than to a redistribution of authority within an enduring order.
