Gareth Evans Oration delivered by Lord Chris Patten
In his address, Lord Patten will point out that “By the late 1980s some claimed that liberal democracy had triumphed everywhere.

With American leadership how can we ensure that liberal democracies are able to create a global partnership which does not exclude China and other authoritarians but ensures the survival and success of open societies.”
