Lubecki will present a lecture titled “ISIS and al-Qaeda as Global Rebels: A Broader Historical Perspective, " during which he will provide a broader historical perspective of Islamic radicalism as a “global rebel” set to undermine the global order led by the United States since 1918.The perspective comes from Lubecki’s own reflection on broader historical patterns and reading of works such as Deluge and The Wages of Destruction.

His research has been published in journals such as Europe-Asia Studies, East European Politics and Societies, The Polish Review, and The New Ukraine.
