Biography
Glenn Diesen is a professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway and an Associate Editor at Russia in Global Affairs. His academic work focuses on geoeconomics, conservatism, Russian foreign policy and the concept of Greater Eurasian integration, and he is the author of numerous books on the changing international order.
Through his Greater Eurasia Podcast — on YouTube and as an audio podcast — and his Substack, Diesen combines his own scholarly analysis with near-daily interviews of prominent heterodox figures, including Jeffrey Sachs, Michael Hudson, Ray McGovern and Jacques Baud. His channel has become one of the central venues in this space.
His distinctive contribution is theoretical: he situates current events within a broader framework of geoeconomic competition and the emergence of a Eurasian pole, giving structure to debates that are often conducted only at the level of immediate events.
