Det er ekstremt farligt, hvis vi alene fokuserer på større forsvarsbudgetter og forsømmer at adressere vores egne demokratiers indre politiske udfordringer, siger den snart 80-årige britiske fredsforsker Mary Kaldor i denne uges Langsomme samtale med Rune Lykkeberg --- Vi er i gang med en massiv oprustning af Europa, som kommer til at transformere vores stater, forandre vores verdenssyn, ændre vores sociale og politiske hierarkier og militarisere vores samfund. Vi har været igennem det før – sidste gang under Den Kolde Krig. Dengang blev oprustningen af samfundet ledsaget af fredsforskning, forskning i konfliktløsning samt adskillige kulturelle afspændingsinitiativer. Det vil sige med en bevidsthed om, at der skal være balance mellem sværdet og ordet, mellem samarbejdet og krigen, mellem oprustningen og udviklingen, det autoritære og det anti-autoritære. Men det ser ud til, at den igangværende oprustning finder sted uden nogen fredsforskningsinitiativer og uden nogen interesse for at opbygge en infrastruktur, hvor fjender kan blive til modstandere, der kan lave aftaler sammen. Spørgsmålet er, om vi kan lære noget af den gamle fredsbevægelse ved at se nærmere på, hvad den var, hvad den fik udrettet, og hvilken rolle den har spillet i historien.  Det er ambitionen bag denne uges Langsomme samtale, hvor Rune Lykkeberg taler med den næsten 80-årige britiske forsker Mary Kaldor. Hun blev født i 1946, voksede op under Den Kolde Krig, deltog i fredsdemonstrationer i 1960'erne og blev i 1980'erne en slags freds- og nedrustningsaktivist. En årrække arbejdede hun på det store svenske fredsforskningscenter i Stockholm, SIPRI, og blev her en stor autoritet med sin forskning i nye og gamle krige, sin begrebsudvikling og hele sin konceptualisering af, hvad menneskelig sikkerhed betyder. Hun er også forfatter til en række banebrydende bøger, herunder Human Security: Reflections on Globalization and Intervention fra 2007,  som handler om at tænke fred og sikkerhed bredere end bare et ophør af krig. Samt New and Old Wars: Organized Violence in a Global Era fra 1999, der gjorde Kaldor til et internationalt hovednavn på grund af sin begrebsliggørelse af såkaldt 'nye' og 'gamle' krige. I dagens afsnit gennemløber Rune Lykkeberg og Mary Kaldor hele fredsforskningens historie frem til i dag. De taler om Israel og om Ukraine og om hele den fredsarkitektur, der blev rejst og siden revet ned, og som nu – sideløbende med de stigende militærudgifter – må bygges op igen.

Guests featured in this episode:Mary Kaldor, Professor Emeritus of Global Governance and Director of the Conflict Research Programme at the London School of Economics and Political Science. She has had a long and illustrious academic career but has also been an activist since the 1980s. She was a founder of the European Nuclear Disarmament Movement, was co-chair of Helsinki Citizens Assembly and Peoples Europe, and was a member of the Goldstone Commission investigating the Kosovo crisis. She has co-edited several influential volumes, on Dealignment and The New Détente, both with Richard Falk; on Restructuring the Global Military Sector; on Democratization in Central and Eastern Europe; and most recently, on EU Global Strategy and Human Security (2018). She is author of the agenda-setting book Global Civil Society: An Answer to War, Human Security: Reflections on Globalization and Intervention, and highly acclaimed New and Old Wars: Organized Violence in a Global Era. GLOSSARYWhat was the Helsinki Accords (Agreement)? (00:5:20 or p.2 in the transcript)Helsinki Accords, also called Helsinki Final Act (August 1, 1975), major diplomatic agreement signed in the capital Of Finland, Helsinki, at the conclusion of the first Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe (CSCE; now called the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe). The Helsinki Accords were primarily an effort to reduce tension between the Soviet and Western blocs by securing their common acceptance of the post-World War II status quo in Europe. The accords were signed by all the countries of Europe (except Albania, which became a signatory in September 1991) and by the United States and Canada. The agreement recognized the inviolability of the post-World War II frontiers in Europe and pledged the 35 signatory nations to respect human rights and fundamental freedoms and to cooperate in economic, scientific, humanitarian, and other areas. The Helsinki Accords are nonbinding and do not have treaty status. Source: What is the theory of nuclear deterrence? (00:21:42 or p.5 in the transcript) The strategic concept of nuclear deterrence aims to prevent war. It is the justification virtually every nuclear state uses for maintaining nuclear arsenals. The concept of nuclear deterrence follows the rationale of the ‘first user' principle.  States reserve the right to use nuclear weapons in self-defence against an armed attack threatening their vital security interests. Possession of nuclear weapons could be seen as the ultimate bargaining tool in international diplomacy, instantly giving any nuclear state a seat at the top table. The possession of nuclear weapons is repeatedly attacked on the grounds of morality, national credibility, legality, and cost. Nonetheless, proponents of deterrence theory generally draw on one primary argument: its efficacy as a war-prevention mechanism. A notable author in the field, Kenneth Waltz, argues that nuclear deterrence bolsters state security by alleviating the prospect of direct attack, essentially ensuring peace through fear of retaliation. It is argued that the nuclear deterrence developed between the USA and the USSR – the belief that any nuclear attack would lead to massive nuclear retaliation and ‘mutually assured destruction' – avoided nuclear war and maintained the temperature between the 1950s and 1990s. The continued nuclear deterrence prevented war between the USA and USSR, and has maintained the West's longest ever period of peace, in the years that followed. It has been noted that no direct conflict has ever broken out between two nuclear-armed states. On these grounds, a small number of proponents maintain that the possession of nuclear proliferation should not be limited to a select few, ‘superior' states. At present, countries possessing a nuclear deterrent are thought to exert an unfair advantage on the global stage, leaving vulnerable countries relatively unprepared (and reliant on nuclear states) in the event of an attack. Since the end of the Cold War, however, the nature of the nuclear threat has changed dramatically. The greatest nuclear fear today is that nuclear weapons find their way into the hands of terrorists or ‘rogue states', either through autonomous programs of development, or technology passed on.  Policy of deterrence is considered useless against terrorists and is less useful against ‘rogue states' such as Iran and North Korea, whose stability is questioned, and whose motivations are less easily understood.

Join Eagleton Professor Saladin Ambar and Eagleton Graduate Fellow Emahunn Campbell for a conversation about Professor Ambar's book, Malcolm X at Oxford Union: Racial Politics in a Global Era. From the Publisher: In 1964 Malcolm X was invited to debate at the Oxford Union Society at Oxford University. The topic of debate that evening was the infamous phrase from Barry Goldwater’s 1964 Republican Convention speech: ”Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice; moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.” At a time when Malcolm was traveling widely and advocating on behalf of Blacks in America and other nations, his thirty-minute speech at the Oxford Union stands out as one of the great addresses of the civil rights era.

The protest movement was a world-wide phenomenon, most prominent from 2011 - 2016. Similarly, the Indignados movement in Spain was a protest movement from 2011 - 2015 against austerity measures in Spain, with overlapping demands for more participative democracy. Both are classified as protest movements in reaction to rising global inequality, the financial crisis of 2008 and the Euro-crisis. Although protests appeared together across the world, demands have generally focused on local issues of income and social inequality. Occupy and Indignados.

The tag line is Challenging what is and inspiring what could be.            Highlights: Since the term was coined in 2007, there is now $500 -700 billion committed capital to impact investing. Social entrepreneurs are supported by organisations such as Ashoka, Skoll World Forum, WEF, Leaders of Tomorrow. Social entrepreneurship and impact investing are the two trends coming together bringing inclusive capitalism to solve and innovative solutions. I am a strong believer that capitalism is something great. Capitalism should be the solution and not the problem. But I also say we should make capitalism more inclusive. Talented people today want to work in companies that pursue meaningful purpose. Public expects capitalism to be articulated in a new way. We can do well by doing good. Every wealthy family particularly the younger generation is interested in these topics The elea Center for Social innovation focus on bringing social entrepreneurs with corporates Covid - All 20 active ventures survived. It was a humbling experience working with entrepreneurs through the pandemic. The pandemic gave us much more urgency and momentum. There is bigger recognition that systemic risks that are tail risks with low probability could happen. The idea of the system is much more concrete and the idea of interconnectedness becomes clear. The Elea Way Book allows for self learning, it is a practical and hands on book from a pedagogical perspective. It is the book that brings together social entrepreneurship and impact investing Standing on the shoulders of others - Bill Braden and Andy Kuper Bill Braden - CEO and founder of Ashoka  - pioneer of social entrepreneurship Andy Cooper - Leapfrog, the first proof of an investment company that profit and purpose works. Fund managers should take a deeper look at impact. 3 phases of impact investment: $10k - Idea phase, competition $100k - Entrepreneur has to decide to fully commit, friends and family money not suffice. revenue of $0.5-2million - Not just concepts, building teams, working with government, 5-7 years Accion (https://www.accion.org/) harnessing digital technology to create financial inclusion Examples of investments: InkaMoss (http://inkamoss.com/) - helping 6000 farmers, small farm holders in Peru Dharma Life (https://dharmalife.in/) - supporting entrepreneurship in 40,000 villages in India BagoSphere (https://www.bagosphere.com/) - providing digital courses to improve employability skills in The Philippines Encouraged to see that social entrepreneurship, impact entrepreneurship and corporates are coming together. “No hay mal. Que por bien no venga” - There are 100’s of methods but nothing that suited our purpose.  The elea Impact Measurement Method was developed for for measuring of impact on absolute poverty specifically for elea. This takes into account - factors and elea impact points/1000 Swiss Franc. Impact points serve 3 purpose: To set goals - how many impact point we want to achieve For comparability between ventures - capital allocation tool To communicate regular performance reporting Investors are not just competing for more impact points but internalising the impact,more than just seeing images. Quantifying impact helps the decision making process and applies theory of change. At some stage, in 5-10 years, impact becomes tradeable. These kinds of currencies become real currency and maybe blockchain will help us here to create markets with impact. When we look at impact it is still traded at a discount. My dream is that one day impact will be traded at a premium not at a discount. They are not called donors, they are called philanthropic investors who give us philanthropic investors. They become by being on the board, helping with strategy and risk management. It’s not about creating bigger institutions and organisations. It’s about how to build partnerships, how to build bridges across sectors. It’s about getting different type of organisations aligned. Collaboration in blended finance needs to be more agile. We are starting to see SDG funds of $500million with blended finance facilities.  Keys to leadership is intentional influence. Leadership needs to be ethical, be more horizontal than vertical, and is able to get things done and mobilise people around solving problems. We need to learn and be thorough. We have wasted a lot of money. Entrepreneurship is more critical and scarce now than money for impact investment.” Time Stamp: [0:02:40] Intro to Vanina and Peter [0:05:20] What is impact investing?

- US now joins China and Europe in big push on climate change agenda- Carbon taxes and recycling agenda will transform chemical industry- US will show renewed global leadership- Demand for virgin polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) will fall as recycling takes off - INEOS should therefore scrap its Antwerp ethane cracker project as well as the propylene dehydrogenation (PDH)- Global supply chains could grind to a halt if China forced into new wave of lockdowns- UK now suffering from post-Brexit end to frictionless trade

Although it might not be a perfect parallel to liken Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris to Harry Truman, I have wondered if President-Elect Biden and Democratic leaders chose her as a potential successor to Biden in a way similar to how the party chose Truman to run with Roosevelt for his last term. Should Ms. Harris need to step in and take over the reins of the White House, what might her leadership style look like?

This is an excerpt of my interview with Saladin Malik Ambar, author of "Malcolm X at Oxford Union: Racial Politics in a Global Era", published by Oxford University Press in 2013, for my Special Series on "Malcolm X and Black Nationalism" on the New Books Network.In this series, we delve into the background of Malcolm X's action and thought in the context of Black Nationalism, correcting the fundamentally mistaken notion that Malcolm X was a civil rights leader. He certainly did not see himself in that way, and explicitly argued otherwise. This helps us place the Afro-American struggle in its dimensions beyond the current American nation-state, including the Black Atlantic, and beyond.Catch the full interview here at https://newbooksnetwork.com/malcolm-x-at-oxford-unionor on Megaphone here:width="100%"> 

In 1964, Malcolm X was invited to debate at the Oxford Union Society at Oxford University. The topic of debate that evening was the infamous phrase from Barry Goldwater's 1964 Republican Convention speech: "Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice; moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue." His response to this topic stands out as one of the great addresses of the civil rights era. In Malcolm X at Oxford Union: Racial Politics in a Global Era (Oxford University Press), Saladin Ambar offers the first in-depth analysis of this important speech, illuminating its context and consequences. Delivered just months before Malcolm's assassination, the speech followed a period in which Malcolm had traveled throughout Africa and much of the Muslim world, advocating on behalf of blacks in America and other nations. The journey broadened his political thought to encompass decolonization and the revolutions underway in the developing world. His travels culminated in a revolutionary speech that tackled a staggering array of issues: the nature of national identity; US foreign policy in the developing world; racial politics at home; the experiences of black immigrants in England; and the nature of power in the contemporary world. The speech represented the most advanced stage of his thought, proffering a global and humanist approach to ushering in social change. Malcolm X at Oxford Union reshapes our understanding not only of the man himself, but world politics both then and now. Kirk Meighoo is a TV and podcast host, former university lecturer, author and former Senator in Trinidad and Tobago. He hosts his own podcast, Independent Thought & Freedom, where he interviews some of the most interesting people from around the world who are shaking up politics, economics, society and ideas.

As we’ve seen with the coronavirus pandemic and anti-racism protests — distance no longer means much. What started in a Chinese city spread to the corners of the earth and what happened on the streets of Minneapolis launched action around the globe. We live in a global era and what happens thousands of miles away can deeply affect our lives. Richard Haass, author of the new book The World: A Brief Introduction, says global literacy is a must this day in age because what happens outside a country matters enormously to what happens inside. He speaks with Jane Harman, president of the Woodrow Wilson Center, about his book and relevant contemporary issues. The views and opinions of the speakers in the podcast do not necessarily reflect those of the Aspen Institute.

Richard Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations and author of the new book The World: A Brief Introduction, sits down with James M. Lindsay to discuss why it’s important to get smarter about the world around us.

In this episode of Battle Rhythm, Steve and Stef start by discussing the security implications of the recent attack on the Saudi oil facility. They move on to analyze Trump's decision to cancel Camp David talks with the Taliban and oust John Bolton as National Security Advisor. Returning closer to home, they discuss Trudeau's interview with comedian, Hasan Minhaj and the impact of foreign policy on the impending federal elections. Steve and Stef also respond to a listener's question on the role of the Canadian Armed Forces in shaping Canada's foreign policy. The Emerging Scholar interview is with Dur-e-Aden who talks about her fascinating research on Islamist and white supremacist extremism. In the feature interview, Steve speaks with Tone Danielsen about her work on embedding with the Norwegian Naval Special Operations Forces. Finally, in Steve's Peeves a word about cancel culture and de-platforming. Battle Rhythm is part of the CGAI Podcast Network, © 2019, all rights reserved.

01.05.2019 Seeing The World How US Universities Make Knowledge In A Global Era U.S. research universities have long endeavored to be cosmopolitan places, yet the disciplines of economics, political science, and sociology have remained stubbornly parochial. Despite decades of government and philanthropic investment in international scholarship, the most prestigious academic departments still favor research and expertise on the United States. Based on a book with the same title, this talk draws on candid interviews with scores of top scholars and university leaders to understand how international inquiry is perceived and valued inside the academy. Seeing the world is at once a work-and-occupations study of scholarly disciplines, an essay on the formal organization of knowledge, and an inquiry into the fate of area studies.

Bienvenidos a SUPRASCONCIENTE.En este primer episodio exploramos los precedentes astrológicos que están haciendo posible la transición espiritual de una sociedad jerárquica a una verdadera comunidad. Nos sumergimos analizando lo que ha dado pie a estos tiempos de aceleración y nos proponemos compartir elevarnos para estar en sintonía con el Universo. Estamos transformando nuestra forma de vivir en distintos sentidos, desde el sistema económico, financiero, social, cultural, educativo, hasta nuestra forma de convivir con los animales y la naturaleza.Astrológicamente, hemos entrando a la época de Acuario, que se caracteriza por ser un periodo de unión, amor, comunicación e información. Es decir, somos la primera generación (en miles de años) que esta experimentando la primera etapa de una nueva era, una era de luz, una era de consciencia, un espacio cósmico y divino para trascender y crecer espiritualmente. ¡Aprovecha esta energía! Escucha el episodio 1 para conocer más sobre como estar en alineación para el nuevo paradigma.Bendiciones, namaste.- Oscar Chamberlain (@hashtagchambs) Support the show (http://www.oscarchamberlain.com)

Welcome back to The TEFLology Podcast - a podcast all about teaching English as a foreign language, and related matters! Today we are very happy to bring you an interview with Professor Mario Saraceni. The interview was conducted in Chichester, on the south coast of England earlier this summer. Mario works as Reader and Associate Head of Research in the School of Language and Area Studies at the University of Portsmouth. Professor Saraceni’s research interests are on English and globalization. His scholarly activities focus on the political, ideological and pedagogical implications of the forms and functions of the English language outside its traditional cultural base.  As well as numerous articles and book chapters, his own published books include 2015’s World Englishes: A Critical Analysis, which was awarded the British Applied Linguistics Association Book Prize in 2016, and 2010’s The Relocation of English: Shifting paradigms in a Global Era.  Matt spoke with Mario about the research area of World Englishes, as well as other related topics. Enjoy the interview! Find information about Mario here.  Find our e-book at The-Round and Amazon.  Email - Ask us questions, give us feedback, tell us what you think of the show.

Fifty years after he was assassinated at age 39, Malcolm X remains a controversial and somewhat mysterious figure. During his short but eventful life, he was a minister with the Nation of Islam who went on to found his own mosque, a fiery militant who advocated “any means necessary” to attain racial justice, and a brilliant, charismatic speaker whose legacy is still being determined.

Earlier this week, the globalization and education special interest group hosted a public webinar entitled “Puncturing the Paradigm: Education Policy in a New ‘Global’ Era.” The webinar brought together Professor’s Toni Verger and Andy Green to discuss their new co-edited Handbook on Global Education Policy. D. Brent Edwards Jr moderated the event. I’m going to play the webinar’s audio here but encourage you to check out FreshEdpodcast.com where you can find a video of the event. I hope you enjoy the show and I’ll be back next week with our final episode of the year.

The Tour de France is happening right now! The 2015 edition started on July 4th and will continue until July 26th. I’m excited to be able to share this interview with Eric Reed about his new book, Selling the Yellow Jersey: The Tour de France in the Global Era (University of Chicago Press, 2015) as riders make their way through the various stages of this, the most famous bike race in the world. A compelling historical narrative of the Tour, including some of its most significant moments and stars, Selling the Yellow Jersey explores the Tour as a global phenomenon. Reed argues that, over the course of the twentieth century, France was a full participant in a globalization that the Tour exemplified as a business and media enterprise, and a spectacle consumed by millions of fans around the world. Considering the roles of organizers, riders, and spectators within and outside of France, the book examines the meanings of “Frenchness” in contexts regional, national, and global. From the Tour’s emergence in 1903 during a “cycling craze” that had a particular vitality in France, to the doping scandals of more recent years, Selling the Yellow Jersey traces the Tour’s triumphs and scandals over more than a hundred years. It is a history of culture and commerce, from an organizational home base in Paris, to smaller French host cities such as Pau and Brest, to an international scene of participants both on, and beyond, the saddle.
