Pepe Escobar (born 1954) is a Brazilian journalist, author, and geopolitical analyst renowned for his on-the-ground reporting from Asia, the Middle East, and Eurasia. As a foreign correspondent since 1985, Escobar has covered major conflicts and shifts in global power dynamics, serving as roving correspondent and editor-at-large for Asia Times, where his column "The Roving Eye" examines the decline of U.S. unipolarity and the emergence of multipolar alliances like BRICS. His analyses, distributed through outlets such as The Real News Network, Sputnik, and TomDispatch, emphasize Eurasian integration and critique Western interventions, drawing from extensive travels to regions including Iraq during the 2007 surge, Afghanistan, and Iran. Escobar has authored multiple books compiling his dispatches, including Globalistan: How the Globalized World is Dissolving into Liquid War (2007), Red Zone Blues: A Snapshot of Baghdad During the Surge (2007), Empire of Chaos (2014), and Raging Twenties (2021), which forecast the transition from a unipolar to a multipolar world order amid economic and technological disruptions. While his independent perspective has garnered acclaim among audiences skeptical of mainstream Western media narratives for its alignment with observable geopolitical trends—such as Russia's pivot to Asia and China's Belt and Road Initiative—Escobar's contributions to state-affiliated platforms like RT have led to accusations of bias from establishment sources, though he bases his reporting on direct sourcing and historical patterns rather than official endorsements.
