Edward Luttwak discusses the current state of great power politics and gauges whether there has been any shift in the balance of power. Putin showed weakness in his failure to quickly achieve victory in Ukraine whereas China is conducting a military buildup. He comments on the specter of WW3, Taiwan, the post-nuclear era, the Middle East, tariffs, deindustrialization in the United States, and the future of the American Dream.

Ao quinto episódio, lançamo-nos à espionagem feminina ao longo da História. Objetivo da missão: revelar papéis preponderantes de mulheres na resolução de grandes conflitos, recorrendo à Antiguidade e à extraordinária Josephine Baker (essa mesmo); lembrando as corajosas Mildred Harnack e Virginia Hall no combate pela Liberdade, mesmo no coração do nazismo; e ainda espreitando (QED) o extraordinário caso das D Day Girls, fundamentais para o desembarque aliado na Normandia e para a Europa que conhecemos - e vivemos - hoje.

Dr. Edward N. Luttwak is a world-renowned American military strategist and author known for his works on grand strategy, geoeconomics, military history, and international relations. He has, over a long and fabled career, advised presidents, prime ministers, governments, world leaders, and superpowers. He has published over twenty books and is best known for being the author of "Coup d'État: A Practical Handbook".
From 2018, through the lens of a classic work of applied politics, thoughts on coups (which have not happened, nor did I predict them), and on social media's role in enforcing global rule of the Left (which I did predict, and which has most definitely happened).
