That consensus is cracking.Vijay Prashad, Executive Director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, explores the shifting political and economic temperament taking shape across Asia, Africa, and Latin America \u2013 a renewed insistence on sovereignty over resources, a search for South-South cooperation and mounting frustration with an unsustainable architecture of debt. Reading today&#8217;s unrest not as scattered crises but as signs of a deeper realignment, he situates this new mood within the longer arc of the Bandung Spirit and the Non-Aligned Movement \u2013 a tradition in which Sri Lanka played a defining part.\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.xx.fbcdn.net\/images\/emoji.php\/v9\/t2d\/1\/16\/1f4cd.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\udccd\" width=\"16\"
