Podcasts about Global governance

Cecelia Lynch, a Professor of Political Science at the University of California, is a leading thinker on the importance of inclusion as a catalyst for promoting sustainable, peaceful, social transformations. The idea is that inclusion should not just be limited to nation states but should from the outset involve those directly impacted by conflicts, so that they play a leading role in the resolution process. Radical inclusion broadens participation to include marginalized groups like local communities, women, and non-state actors. It also involves local communities and their unique forms of knowledge in the stewardship of environmental protection, peace building initiatives and conflict resolution, and the design of strategies aimed at improving the livelihoods of marginalized groups around the world. A peace and prosperous world are an impossible achievement if it does not include the voices of the voiceless. Learn more on GlobalGovernanceForum.org

This is a special episode that features a conversation between Sonia Bussu and Hans Asenbaum on democracy, capitalism, climate and the practices and prospects of participatory, deliberative and more-than-human democracy to transform their relationship. Can we rethink democracy beyond the liberal-democratic institutions that were created as part of the bargain for fossil-fuel-driven, Western-centric economic growth?

What happens when the country that helped design the international human rights system starts to dismantle it?In this episode, we speak with the former president of the U.N. General Assembly, Ambassador Dennis Francis, about the growing threats to global cooperation and human rights—from authoritarian drift, to shrinking U.S. commitments, to rising fears inside the U.N. system itself. Is this the end of the liberal international order? And if so, what comes next?

Host Marcia Franklin talks with Strobe Talbott, a former journalist and diplomat who was the president of the Brookings Institution from 2002 to 2017. Talbott, who wrote for Time magazine for more than 20 years, has also penned a dozen books. Franklin and Talbott talk about his passion for the subject of global warming, and whether the issue is still on the political radar for politicians and the public. His book, Fast Forward: Ethics and Politics in the Age of Global Warming, suggests political and societal solutions for reversing climate change. The two also discuss his views on global governance, about which he writes in The Great Experiment: The Story of Ancient Empires, Modern States, and the Quest for a Global Nation. Talbott also sits on North American Executive Committee of the Trilateral Commission. The two discuss some Americans' fears of a "One World government."

Sundeep Waslekar eloquently explains why current nationalisms and our obsession with the primacy of the nation state are not able to deliver practical solutions to the problems that threaten our future as a human family. In addition to reforms to our current UN-based global governance architecture we also need a new philosophical and ethical framework that is consistent with the idea that we are one human family, inhabiting one planet and that our survival as a human species is inextricably linked to the recognition of our common humanity. Without this anchoring based on enlightened human values, we risk being overwhelmed by multiple crises and the resulting human suffering. We must imagine a better future and take the concrete steps to get there.Learn more on GlobalGovernanceForum.org

In this episode, we examine the complex issue of global food security and the need for a revamped governance system. Despite having enough food produced worldwide to feed everyone, millions still suffer from hunger due to systemic failures. Our guest, Amir Abdulla, one of the Commissioners of the Kofi Annan Foundation Commission on Food Security, shares vital insights from the recently released report entitled "Reimagining Global Governance." The report provides a roadmap to address systemic failures in our broken global food governance system and to redefine how we address one of humanity's most pressing challenges. It outlines four governance shifts and provides ten actionable recommendations. Amir Abdulla, with his extensive experience, including as former Deputy Executive Director of the World Food Programme (WFP) and former UN Coordinator for the Black Sea Grain Initiative, discusses the necessity of political commitment and the importance of youth participation and anticipatory governance in shaping a sustainable future. Join us as we explore the pivotal actions needed to ensure food security for future generations.

The Club of Rome founded in 1968 has suspicions of global governance as it lays out a blueprint for sustainability of nations through proposals of influence given by high profile leaders around the globe. The members include Henry Kissinger as well as influenctial innovators, educators, scientists, high level politicians, governmenal officials, diplomats, and business people.Its stated goal is to address conditions and propose solutions through its framework of ideas.The Club of Rome split up the world into 10 regions in which powers would concentrate on the affairs of the world. This has brought suspicions and conspiratorial speculations.Article mentioned in this episodehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/387827375_The_Club_of_Rome_and_the_10_Kingdoms_Unraveling_Intent_Emergent_Phenomena_and_Prophetic_Interpretations_in_Global_Governance

Migration expert Alan Gamlen joins Democracy Sausage to unpack the arguments and misconceptions around immigration. What is it about immigration that makes voters so anxious? What are the misconceptions we have about migration? And with Peter Dutton mulling over a referendum to give ministers the power the ability to strip dual nationals of citizenship will migration be a key issue in the upcoming election? On this episode of Democracy Sausage, Professor Alan Gamlen joins Professor Mark Kenny to discuss the politicisation of migration and what it means for this election. Alan Gamlen is the Director of the Migration Hub at the ANU School of Regulation and Global Governance. Mark Kenny is the Director of the ANU Australian Studies Institute. He came to the University after a high-profile journalistic career including six years as chief political correspondent and national affairs editor for The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and The Canberra Times.

In this episode, we welcome longtime friend and collaborator of the UCL Global Governance Institute, Professor Philipp Pattberg, to the podcast, a leading scholar in global environmental governance and sustainability transitions. As Director of the Amsterdam Sustainability Institute and Professor of Transnational Environmental Governance at VU Amsterdam, Philipp's research examines the role of non-state actors, polycentric governance, and institutional complexity in shaping environmental policy. His work has not only advanced our understanding of governance arrangements beyond the nation-state but has also been instrumental in defining the contours of global governance itself – critically interrogating how the very concept of governance is framed, structured, and, ultimately, deployed in the world. With the UN Climate Change Conference (COP30) in Belém, Brazil, fast approaching, we take stock of the evolving governance landscape under the Paris Agreement. A decade after its adoption, the Paris framework continues to define global climate efforts – but does it still hold promise as an effective governance mechanism? In this episode, Pattberg explores the tensions between ambition and implementation, the growing role of private authority and climate clubs, and the need for transformative governance approaches to meet the urgency of the climate crisis. He also reflects on the broader implications of environmental governance beyond climate, from biodiversity loss to planetary boundaries, and what lessons can be drawn for possible futures of multilateralism. Throughout, he challenges us to consider how governance itself is shaped by ideological assumptions, questioning the analytical ‘boxes' that define the field. Philipp is Professor of Transnational Environmental Governance at VU Amsterdam and Director of the Amsterdam Sustainability Institute. His research focuses on climate governance, biodiversity policy, and institutional change in global sustainability governance. He has published extensively in leading journals, including Global Governance, Global Environmental Politics and Environmental Policy and Governance, and is the author of Private Institutions and Global Governance and Environmental Politics and Governance in the Anthropocene (with Frank Biermann). Philipp's VU Amsterdam profile can be found here: https://research.vu.nl/en/persons/ph-pattberg We discussed: • '20 Years of global climate change governance research: taking stock and moving forward', International Environment Agreements (2022). With Cille Kaiser, Oscar Widerberg and Johannes Stripple. • ‘Forum: Global Governance: Decline or Maturation of an Academic Concept?' International Studies Review (2010). With Hans Overbeek, Klaus Dingwerth and Daniel Compagnon. • ‘The Fragmentation of Global Governance Architectures: A Framework for Analysis', Global Environmental Politics (2009). With Frank Biermann, Harro van Asselt and Fariborz Zelli. • ‘Global Governance as a Perspective on World Politics', Global Governance (2006). With Klaus Dingwerth.

In this episode, we welcome one of the most influential voices in international relations, Professor Craig Murphy. A pioneer in global governance scholarship, Craig has been at the forefront of research on international organizations, industrial change, and the historical evolution of global political structures. His work bridges critical theory, historical materialism, and the study of transnational social movements, offering a sweeping perspective on the forces that have shaped our world. In recognition of his significant contribution to the field, Craig has received the Distinguished Senior Scholar Award in International Political Economy (2013) and International Organization (2024) from the International Studies Associations. In this conversation, we trace Craig's trajectory through the intellectual landscape of the 1970s, where emerging ideas on world-systems theory, quantitative peace research, and environmental limits reshaped the study of international politics. With trademark humour, he reflects on the influence of Robert Cox and historical materialism, the critical need to challenge “relentless presentism” in global governance research, and the dual role of international institutions – as both market-builders for industrial capitalism and platforms for political resistance. We close by reflecting on a world grappling with existential threats and Craig's salutary reminder that the task ahead is not just to critique existing governance but to fundamentally rethink and remake it. Craig Murphy is the Betty Freyhof Johnson '44 Professor Emeritus of Political Science at Wellesley College. A leading scholar of global governance, he has served as President of the International Studies Association (2000-2001) and co-editor of the journal Global Governance. Craig Murphy's Wellesley profile can be found here: https://www1.wellesley.edu/politicalscience/faculty/murphy We discussed: • ‘Every Just Peace is Something New: Translating a Difficult Finding from the Social Sciences to the Humanities and Back', unpublished manuscript. • International Organization and Industrial Change: Global Governance since 1850 (Oxford, 1994). • ‘Global Governance Over the Long Haul', International Studies Quarterly (2014). • ‘Global governance: poorly done and poorly understood', International Affairs (2000).

Donald Trump declared Ukraine had started the war with Russia and labelled its leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a dictator. Trump's vice president JD Vance has thrown his support behind far-right parties in Germany.At the same time, talks on ending the war in Ukraine began with only the US and Moscow at the table. It was a week where we saw an extraordinary shift in American foreign policy, which led to European leaders holding crisis talks. Today, Samir Puri, director of Chatham House's centre for global governance and security on how it all unfolded and the consequences that could follow.  Featured: Dr Samir Puri, Director of the Centre for Global Governance and Security at Chatham House and author of Westlessness: The Great Global Rebalancing

Charlie Robinson isn't just stepping into alternative media—he's on a mission to transform it. As the new force behind Activist Post, he shares how he went from an author and podcast host to leading one of the most influential independent news platforms. In this episode, we get real about the cracks in alternative media—how narratives get twisted, what stories get buried, and why questioning everything is more important than ever. We break down how mainstream narratives around COVID-19, financial systems, and government control over cryptocurrencies are shaping the world around us. We also pull back the curtain on the hidden agendas driving global governance and elite power structures. We also talk about the growing shift toward independent voices, the rise of decentralized media, and why more people than ever are waking up to the bigger picture. More about Charlie "Charlie Robinson is a #1 best-selling author of such books as The Controlled Demolition Of The American Empire with co-author Jeff Berwick, The Octopus Of Global Control, and Hypocrazy: Surviving In A World Of Cultural Double Standards. His twice-weekly podcast Macroaggressions has been the #1 podcast in the Government section of iTunes in the United States, Canada, Australia, and over 20 other countries around the world. It has been described as “your favorite podcaster's favorite podcast” by those in the Alternative Media, and it is one of the fastest-growing shows in the world with well over 7,000,000 downloads globally in just the first four years.

Charlie's Macroaggressions Podcast Chapter Timestamps (00:32) - Activist Post Takeover and Media Integrity (18:32) - The Dangers of Alternative Media (32:41) - Manufactured Pandemic and Depopulation Agenda (46:56) - The Future of Currency and Wealth (52:31) - Navigating Conversations About Government and Bitcoin (59:28) - Questioning Society's Apathy and Complacency (01:03:14) - The Awakening and Preparedness Ahead (01:09:13) - Empowering Conversations on Alternative Media ---------------------------- Chapters With Long Summaries Chapter 1 Activist Post Takeover and Media Integrity 00:32 This chapter welcomes Charlie Robinson, who shares his excitement about taking over Activist Post, a leading independent media website. After initially hesitating, Charlie decided to embrace the opportunity to manage the site, drawn by his passion for curating impactful content. He discusses the site's transformation, highlighting improvements in speed and user experience by updating its outdated infrastructure. Charlie, known for his articulate voice on freedom and cultural issues, also promotes his new edition of "Hypocrisy: Surviving in a World of Cultural Double Standards" and shares insights into his journey from writing books and hosting podcasts to leading a major media platform. Chapter 2 The Dangers of Alternative Media 18:32 This chapter focuses on navigating alternative media to discern authenticity and avoid misinformation. We explore the subtle tactics used in propaganda, such as blending truth with minor but significant alterations that can change narratives. The discussion highlights the importance of questioning why certain topics are ignored, particularly in mainstream alternative media, and scrutinizing the funding behind large productions. We also examine the role of former intelligence operatives in the media landscape and the impact of being banned as a potential indicator of truth-telling. Additionally, we touch on interesting guests like Dr. Jack Cruz, who challenge mainstream narratives, and discuss the effects of blue light on well-being. Overall, this chapter encourages critical thinking and awareness in media consumption. Chapter 3 Manufactured Pandemic and Depopulation Agenda 32:41 This chapter explores the skepticism surrounding government and media narratives during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting perceived manipulations and incentives to increase vaccine uptake. I express frustration over what is seen as an overblown crisis and suggest that the resistance to vaccines was underestimated by authorities. The conversation touches on theories about elite intentions, suggesting that depopulation may be a covert objective linked to global governance, supported by historical references like the 1974 National Security Memorandum 200 by Henry Kissinger. There's also a discussion on whether some elites might view these actions as a means to strengthen humanity by eliminating "dead weight." The complex interplay of power, control, and public health policies is examined, questioning the true motivations behind these global strategies. Chapter 4 The Future of Currency and Wealth 46:56 This chapter explores the challenges and possibilities of financial systems in a rapidly changing world. We examine the limitations of programmable money and its potential impact on personal freedom, highlighting concerns about geofencing and restricted transactions. The discussion shifts to the value of alternative currencies like Goldbacks, a unique currency infused with gold, and their legal and practical benefits. I share insights from a recent interview with the Goldback founder and discuss how these can be used at farmer's markets or as gifts. The conversation also touches on the role of intrinsic wealth, with a nod to the educational aspect of teaching children about the tangible value of precious metals like silver. Additionally, I discuss the potential of cryptocurrencies, appreciating both Bitcoin's transparency and Monero's privacy features, while advocating for holding value in Bitcoin over traditional dollars as a form of economic expression. Chapter 5 Navigating Conversations About Government and Bitcoin 52:31 This chapter examines the complex landscape of cryptocurrency, particularly Bitcoin, and its interaction with government policies. We explore the apprehensions surrounding government involvement in Bitcoin, expressing a preference for minimal interference and highlighting the potential consequences if major governments like the United States begin to amass Bitcoin reserves. The conversation also touches on the broader theme of skepticism toward government actions, such as bans on certain substances like red dye, and a general mistrust of government intentions. Additionally, I reflect on the challenge of communicating these perspectives to others, especially those who may be unaware or dismissive, and suggest a more engaging approach through dialogue and questioning rather than overwhelming them with information. Chapter 6 Questioning Society's Apathy and Complacency 59:28 This chapter explores the pervasive issue of public apathy towards environmental phenomena, such as chemtrails, and broader societal programming through media and education. We express frustration with how people are more engrossed in TV shows and sports trivia than in questioning unusual patterns in the sky or the implications of modern living on their health and awareness. The conversation touches on the potential numbing effects of fluoride, processed foods, and media, which may contribute to a general lack of curiosity and critical thinking. Despite this, I emphasize a personal shift towards positivity and hope, aiming to end on an optimistic note by seeking aspects of the future to be hopeful about, despite the prevailing challenges. Chapter 7 The Awakening and Preparedness Ahead 01:03:14 This chapter addresses the growing skepticism towards mainstream media and the potential shift in public consciousness following major global events like COVID-19, the JFK assassination, and 9/11. We explore how diminishing trust in traditional news outlets, evidenced by declining viewership and financial struggles of networks like MSNBC, presents an opportunity for alternative media to provide more authentic information. Optimism surrounds the idea that people are questioning narratives and seeking truth beyond mainstream channels. Drawing parallels with the 2004 Indonesian tsunami, there's an urgency to recognize impending challenges and prepare for the future, both in terms of financial stability and critical awareness. The importance of staying vigilant and asking questions is emphasized as a means to navigate uncertain times and seize opportunities that arise in their aftermath.

Much like national economies, countries that economically interact with each other need rules to help ensure markets work well, and that economic outcomes accord with some understanding of fairness and equity. While such rules can constrain what a country does, for much of the post-war era, nations have recognized the benefits of international cooperation and the importance of a stable set of rules. Yet, as populism and disdain towards globalization grows, global governance will likely retreat in scope. Could a more circumscribed understanding of global governance help domestic economies do better than if they faced no constraints from global governance rules? Dani Rodrik joins EconoFact Chats to discuss. Dani is the Ford Foundation Professor of International Political Economy at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.

Professor Yoshua Bengio is a pioneer in deep learning and Turing Award winner. Bengio talks about AI safety, why goal-seeking “agentic” AIs might be dangerous, and his vision for building powerful AI tools without giving them agency. Topics include reward tampering risks, instrumental convergence, global AI governance, and how non-agent AIs could revolutionize science and medicine while reducing existential threats. Perfect for anyone curious about advanced AI risks and how to manage them responsibly.

By the time of the National Lawyers Convention, the American electorate will have decided on a new president and, with him or her, a new administration. What will a Donald Trump or Kamala Harris administration mean for American business? How will the new administration handle corporate tax, federal regulations, agency guidance, antitrust questions, and helming the administrative state in a post-Chevron world? How should American companies, and their in-house counsels, prepare for the next four years?Featuring:Hon.

The BRICS+ summit was held in the Russian city of Kazan this past October. The original BRICS comprised four countries: Brazil, Russia, India, and China. The first meeting that they held was in 2009. South Africa joined in 2011. BRICS has now grown to include Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. The recent summit also invited 13 countries to the group as partner states. Countries that have expressed interest in joining BRICS include Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand (which is a U.S. treaty ally), and Turkey (which is a member of NATO).As countries in the Global South flock to form an increasingly significant geopolitical bloc in which China has assumed a leading role, it is important to understand how BRICS+ fits into China's foreign policy strategy and the role that the BRICS mechanism is likely to play going forward. To discuss these issues, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Alexander Gabuev, director of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center which is based in Berlin. His research focuses on Chinese and Russian foreign policy. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:37] Behind the Creation of BRICS[04:08] BRICS+ in China's Foreign Policy Objectives[06:20] Domination of China in BRICS+[09:13] Russian and Chinese Interest in BRICS+[14:16] China and the Expansion of BRICS[18:07] Noteworthiness of the Kazan Declaration[21:10] Possibility of a BRICS Currency[28:11] BRICS+ and U.S. Policy Under Donald Trump[30:26] Responding to BRICS+ and a Multipolar World

Since the global financial crisis that began in 2008, the role of the financial sector in contemporary capitalism has come under increasing scrutiny. In the global North, the expansion of the financial sector over the last 40 years has paralleled a decline in manufacturing employment and an increase in personal indebtedness, giving rise to the perception that speculation and usury have come to replace production as the engine of economic growth. In the global South, financial liberalization has exacerbated long-standing patterns of boom-and-bust cycles, and the growth of the financial sector has caused anxieties that speculative investments in natural resource extraction, urban real estate, and rural farm land are dispossessing and displacing people rather than improving human development. Overall, the growth of the financial sector has created the perception that we're entering a new phase in capitalism's history in which speculation and rent-seeking have displaced production as the engines of economic growth. My guest today, the political economist Nick Bernards, challenges this narrative. In his new book, Fictions of Financialization: Rethinking Speculation, Exploitation and Twenty-First Century Capitalism (Pluto Press, 2024), Bernards argues that we need to re-center labor in narratives about the expansion of finance, that speculation and the subsumption of nature are always central to capitalism, and that major private-sector financial institutions have actually been reluctant to invest in major development projects in the global south. The main problem with the growth of finance is that it makes more exploitation, displacement, and environmental damage – in short, more capitalism – possible. Nick Bernards is Associate Professor of Global Sustainable Development at the University of Warwick. He is the author of A Critical History of Poverty Finance (Pluto, 2022) and The Global Governance of Precarity (Routledge, 2018). Learn more about your ad choices.

Things aren't what they used to be: they're actually better. Yet even though many measures show how much progress we've made, many people feel like things are worse than ever. How do we change this perspective? In this episode, host Samantha Laine Perfas speaks with positive psychologist Tal Ben-Shahar, global governance expert Jane Nelson, and evidence-based optimist Steven Pinker about choosing optimism.

This week, our hosts dive into The Rio Trio! No, this is not the name of a new cocktail but three COPs (Biodiversity in Colombia, Climate in Azerbaijan and Desertification in Saudi Arabia) which are about to happen back-to-back. Plus the plastics treaty negotiations in South Korea. Join our hosts for their take on the history of these three different but interrelated COPs, all conceived in the Earth Summit in Rio in 1992. How have they evolved, and how might they continue to evolve to be fit for purpose in a changed world? Since this subject is complex, Christiana uses her get-out clause and phones a special friend for much-needed clarity. Christiana also asks the question: If we had a blank slate now, would it make more sense to kick start a process based on all nine planetary boundaries? Would this help us focus holistically on the interconnected challenges we face? Sit back and listen as the hosts try to make sense of this negotiating super season for the planet and all its peoples. Please keep tuned for special and in-depth coverage from the Outrage + Optimism team to guide you through each of these key moments.    NOTES AND RESOURCES How COPs are organised - Questions and answers  From Cancun to Durban: Implications for Climate and Multilateral Diplomacy by HE Patricia Espinosa COP16 host Colombia pushes for unified UN climate and nature pledges COP Presidencies Launch ‘Rio Trio'  Biodiversity COP Climate COP Desertification COP   GUEST Richard Kinley, President, Foundation for Global Governance and Sustainability and former senior official at the UN Climate Change Secretariat (UNFCCC) from 1993 to 2017.

More than 130 world leaders just completed a week of meetings in New York for the annual opening of the United Nations General Assembly. This high-level week, as it's called, began with States adopting U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres' "Pact for the Future,” a key document generated as part of the "Summit of the Future."  The goal of the Summit, and the pact, is to recharge the idea of global cooperation, which is facing severe strain amid competition between the United States and its allies on the one hand, and Russia and China and their allies on the other. The U.N. meetings also occurred as conflicts in Ukraine, the Middle East, Sudan, and Myanmar, to name just a few, are killing tens of thousands of people and displacing millions. What were the key outcomes from the Summit of the Future and how might it shape future global diplomacy? And how can the U.N. more broadly remain relevant amid such geopolitical tensions? This is the Just Security Podcast. I'm your host, Paras Shah.
