Bruno Maçães is a Portuguese philosopher, journalist, politician, consultant and author. He is a former Secretary of State for European Affairs in Portugal and a columnist for the New Statesman. [1] He is a Member of the European Council on Foreign Relations [2] and a Member of the Advisory Council for the Brussels Institute of Geopolitics. [3]
Education
He studied at the University of Lisbon and Harvard University, where he wrote his doctoral dissertation under Harvey Mansfield. [4]
Career
His tenure as Secretary of State for European Affairs in Portugal took place during the country's financial crisis. In 2013 the main Greek newspaper wrote that he was very German in his economic views. [5] He told an audience in London that Germany has a "hypocritical" view to trade negotiations. [6] He was described by Wolfgang Munchau as "reinventing the wheel" after tabling a number of proposals for eurozone reform. [7] In April 2014 he defended an energy pact between the United States and Europe to face the Russian threat. [8] His strategy was to create an energy revolution and move Europe to the Atlantic. [9] In 2014 he was the first Western politician to visit Mariupol as it remained under Russian attack.
Maçães left government in November 2015. He was a senior fellow at Carnegie Europe, the Hudson Institute and Renmin University of China in Beijing. [10]
He is the author of four books: Dawn of Eurasia: On the Trail of the New World Order, Belt and Road: A Chinese World Order, History Has Begun: The Birth of a New America, and Geopolitics for the End Time: From the Pandemic to the Climate Crisis.
His book The Dawn of Eurasia, published by Penguin in January 2018, [11] argued that the distinction between Europe and Asia had disappeared. [12] In 2018 The Dawn of Eurasia was granted the international Ranald MacDonald Award. His book History Has Begun describes a theory of "virtualism". [13] Malloy Owen wrote: “ Like Alexis de Tocqueville, Bruno Maçães is an aristocratic European traveler in search of the meaning of the New World.” Geopolitics for the End Time was reviewed by Paul Krugman in the New York Review of Books.
