Unleashed! The Political News Hour with Bruce Robertson – What the WEF and Schwab propose really is a new form of socialist, fascist tyranny that turns sovereign nations and their citizens into dependent subjects of one world government, one world bank, one world health organization, and one world military. Instead of all that, President Trump is rebuilding America's economic...
What a profound honor to have Paul Kennedy on the ChinaTalk podcast. Kennedy is my favorite living historian and the writer who's most shaped my intellectual development. His analysis underpins what you hear on this show every week. The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers is an epochal work that traces global power transitions from 1500 to the present. It's gripping, forest-and-trees scholarship at its finest. Equally impressive in different ways is his book, The Rise of Anglo-German Antagonism, 1860 to 1914. Not only is it god-tier diplomatic history, it also gives you a feel for the era through its explorations of social, economic, domestic, political, and cultural dimensions of Anglo-German relations. There are fascinating US/China analogies that we'll get into at some point in this podcast. His two most recent works directly inform the military coverage on China Talk. Engineers of Victory looks at how people and the systems they worked within solved engineering challenges that turned the tide for entire theaters in World War II. His latest, Victory at Sea: Naval Power and the Transformation of Global Order in World War II, is a sweeping history of a radical transformation in the balance of military power, from the mid-1930s when America was just gaining prominence, to after World War II, when it had no other significant naval competitor. The Parliament of Man: A History of the United Nations first got me interested in international organizations and gave me my senior thesis topic about the creation of the UN. What Kennedy taught me more than anything is this: sweat the details, look at the individual players, and zoom out often enough to understand what truly shapes the long-term fate of nations. Over the course of this episode, we pick up themes from all across his work: Great Power rivalries of the late 19th-early 20th centuries and their echoes today, Why potential antagonisms turn nice and why others turn belligerent, The persistent struggles of liberal internationalists and why they rarely get the outcomes they want, How China today is not Germany of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, The surprising ways geography shapes global power dynamics, How fear spreads among nations and why mutual suspicion is so hard to escape, Why top powers blow it and lose their dominant place in the world, How systems and innovation win wars. And much more, including salutary lessons from the Dutch and Swedes on boring yet prosperous futures, how Churchill's interest in gadgets influenced the course of the Second World War, and why transformative action from the UN remains unlikely in the near future.

Theo Jaffee and Sophia Puccini speak with Balaji Srinivasan and Steven Glinert about the shifting balance of power between nations, networks, and technology. The conversation covers China's industrial rise, America's manufacturing challenges, the role of alliances in a multipolar world, and whether the internet is becoming a political force independent of traditional nation states. They discuss supply chains, technological sovereignty, decentralization, and competing visions for the future global order. Along the way, Balaji outlines ideas from the Network State and Network School, while both guests debate how technology, economics, and political power may evolve over the coming decades.

Putin's Russia has always been China's pragmatic junior partner while trying to balance its dependency on Beijing, but since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the relationship has become ever more tilted in China's favor. What are the current dynamics between the two countries, how is China promoting its interests, and what have Putin and Trump's recent visits to Beijing changed in China's relationship with Russia?

This episode with Jake Clapham explores the growing fragility of the international order, examining how institutional collapse, strategic miscalculation, and great power rivalry can transform regional crises into global conflicts. Drawing on the history of Imperial Japan, the Second World War, and contemporary flashpoints including Ukraine, Taiwan, and the Strait of Hormuz, the conversation considers whether the world is entering a new era of prolonged geopolitical instability.We discuss how Japan's expansion into China and the attack on Pearl Harbor reflected not strategic confidence but strategic desperation, and why understanding the internal logic, culture, and decision-making structures of rival powers remains essential to avoiding catastrophic miscalculation today. The episode traces the historical links between conflicts in Europe and Asia during the 1930s, exploring how aggression in Manchuria weakened international norms and helped create the conditions for wider global war.The conversation also examines the contemporary erosion of trust in democratic and international institutions, the rise of political polarisation within liberal societies, and the growing risks posed by declining confidence in alliances such as NATO. We consider how domestic politics increasingly shape foreign policy, why economic interdependence does not necessarily prevent conflict, and how instability in regions such as the Middle East could accelerate wider confrontation in East Asia.Jake is a History Youtuber who focuses on the intersection between the past and present - most recently shooting a documentary in Japan about the causes and consequences of ww2.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

The U.S. created the post-World War II international order that it no longer wants to lead today. But what replaces it is still unknown. So, in the meantime, small and medium-sized countries, so-called "middle powers," are scrambling to form new partnerships to insulate themselves from the inevitable instability that will arise from this transition. We're seeing this play out daily now as leaders from South Africa, Brazil, Australia, Vietnam, Japan, and dozens of other countries crisscross the globe at a frenetic pace to build what many are describing as a new middle-power coalition. But Sarang Shidore, director of the Global South program at the Quincy Institute, argued in a Foreign Policy column that it's going to be difficult, if not impossible, for a coalition like this to succeed. Sarang joins Eric to explain why divergent north-south interests will be very hard to overcome.
Is a new Non-Aligned Movement emerging to counter the United States (and is it trying to counter the US)? What was the original Non-Aligned Movement during the Cold War? What was the New International Economic Order, and why did it disappear? What prospects are there for a global order in a post-hegemon, post-American, multipolar world? And what does the US Democratic Party have to do with all these questions? Dr. Nils Gilman joins Dr. Van Jackson on The Un-Diplomatic Podcast tackle all those questions by discussing Gilman's new essay in Dissent Magazine called "A New Non-Aligned Movement?"

More To The Story: When President Donald Trump returned to office last year, he promised to largely steer America clear of foreign entanglements. But over the last year, his administration has captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, threatened to take over Greenland, openly talked about making Canada the 51st state, and most recently attacked Iran. In some ways, it might appear that Trump is trying to revive the American empire. Not so, says Daniel Immerwahr, a Northwestern University history professor and author of How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States. What Trump is really doing, he says, is undermining the international system itself. On this week's More To The Story, Immerwahr sits down with host Al Letson to examine Trump's attack on Iran, why Trump is ripping apart the post-World War II international order, and the long-term consequences of the president's impulsive foreign policy.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonListen: Al Gore: Trump Administration Is the Most Corrupt in History (More To The Story)Read: Trump's New Nuclear Nightmare in Iran (Mother Jones)Read: How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States (Picador) Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram and Bluesky Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
A sharp warning from Kenneth Roth: the global order isn't collapsing, but it's being stretched by powerful states prioritising force over law. In this Radio Islam International interview, Roth unpacks how selective justice, “predatory leadership,” and violations in places like Gaza and Sudan are testing international law's credibility, while institutions like the ICC and ICJ still push back, imperfectly but persistently.
For all the talk of Trump's ‘warmongering' and the US Congress's failure to rein him in, the Iran conflict recalls a familiar trajectory. It is an evolving continuum of great power behaviour.
In this episode, Kelly and Tristan break down two major stories shaping the world right now - Iran and Hungary.

Visit us at Network2020.org. Three weeks into 2026, the United States removed a foreign head of state by force, threatened to take territory from a NATO ally, and backed a crackdown in Iran. Since this conversation was recorded in late January, the Supreme Court has struck down the president's sweeping tariffs, U.S. and Israeli strikes have killed Iran's supreme leader, and Europe has begun the largest military buildup since the Cold War.How dead is the U.S.-led rules-based order? What, if anything, might replace it? Will the emerging international system be shaped by cooperation or by competition and conflict? What roles will major powers — including China, the EU, and the BRICS — play in what comes next? And will the United States continue to act as a global enforcer, or has it become something else entirely?Join us for a discussion featuring Professor Amitav Acharya, UNESCO Chair in Transnational Challenges and Governance, and Distinguished Professor at the School of International Service at American University, and author of The Once and Future World Order: Why Global Civilization Will Survive the Decline of the West; Professor Daniel Drezner, Academic Dean and Distinguished Professor of International Politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University; and Professor Stacie Goddard, the Betty Freyhof Johnson '44 Professor of Political Science and Associate Provost for Wellesley in the World at Wellesley College.

It is with great pleasure that I invited my colleague, Miles Kahler into the Virtual Studio for this episode of ‘Shaking the Global Order', S4, Ep 2. With Miles in the Virtual Studio I was particularly interested in how he understands the conflicts that President Trump has engaged in, from: Ukraine, Venezuela and fairly evidently the US-Israel conflict with Iran and the current ceasefire in Gaza. What do all these actions say about Trump's understanding of interstate relations and what he means when he speaks of ‘America First'. Miles is a research professor-in-residence and distinguished professor emeritus at American University's School of International Service. Miles Kahler is also a nonresident scholar in the Global Order and Institutions Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Before joining the faculty of SIS, Kahler was Rohr Professor of Pacific International Relations and Distinguished Professor of Political Science at the University of California, San Diego.
Milton Friedman once famously said, "It's not what you don't know, It's what you know that just ain't so!" This is especially when it comes to war and the framework America knows as the "Global Order" formed in the wake of WWII. Many times I have posited the idea that the so called, Global Order is a construct that only exists as long as it is working for everyone. It's no longer working for large portions of the global population, including the United State of America. The USA has been attempting to pushing the order beyond its acceptable limits and the Globe is pushing back.Professor Jiang Xueqin Game Theory on Iranian Conflicthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQSDSqdlFxk&t=124sBreaking Points with Professor Jiang Xueqin Truth Predictionshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ql24Z8SIeE

Following the initiation of a peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan last summer, there is still a long way to go before the conclusion of a formal agreement and sustainable peace in the region. In the wake of a visit by U.S. Vice President JD Vance and a plethora of signed agreements, the South Caucasus finds itself less and less dependent on a previous regional hegemon: Russia. What does this mean for the region? What obstacles remain on the road to a full-fledged peace between Armenia and Azerbaijan? Check out the paper here.
In Episode 87 of Geopolitics with Ghost, Ghost dives into the escalating tensions surrounding Ukraine, NATO expansion, and the broader strategic realignment taking place between Russia and the West. He traces the historical context behind NATO's eastward movement, examining how prior agreements and security assurances shaped today's conflict environment. Ghost analyzes Western diplomatic positioning, military aid packages, and the economic consequences of sanctions, arguing that the Ukraine war represents more than a regional dispute — it is a pivotal moment in the struggle over global power structures. He also explores how media narratives frame aggression, sovereignty, and legitimacy, contrasting official messaging with underlying geopolitical incentives. The episode connects energy policy, defense alliances, and financial pressure into a cohesive picture of shifting alliances and multipolar tension. Ep. 87 offers a historical and strategic lens on the Ukraine conflict, focusing on how great power competition is reshaping the international system in real time.

January felt like a decade—and the world order may have just shifted.In this episode of Rebuilders, we unpack the extraordinary global developments that marked the start of 2026. From the dramatic ICE raids in Minnesota, to Trump's military strike in Venezuela, to rising tensions in Iran and the eerie blackout in Greenland—this month has signalled more than just upheaval. It reveals a deep, global redefinition of how power works.Mark explores how the old world order—shaped by institutions, norms, and restraint—is giving way to a new one marked by raw assertion, norm-breaking, and unfiltered authority.

And how should followers of Jesus respond in a world that feels increasingly disorienting?If you've felt overwhelmed, confused, or powerless lately, this conversation will bring clarity—and hope.

Nothing short of an absolute brawl at Davos. President Trump storms the globalist stronghold with a nationalist message that leaves the UN, NATO, and Europe reeling. From Greenland to Ukraine, China to Russia, this speech rips the mask off the so-called “international order.” Seats left empty. Deals ripped up. And a world order on the brink of collapse. This wasn't diplomacy — it was a warning shot.
Trump didn't just give a speech at Davos — he blew up the board. Within minutes of his remarks, EU leaders paused their own trade deal, called an emergency meeting, and began scrambling to respond to what may become one of the most iconic geopolitical moments of this era: empty chairs behind President Trump as he unveiled his proposed Board of Peace. After $300+ billion in U.S. taxpayer money spent defending Europe, Trump put a simple question to the world:
Nothing less than an absolute brawl at Davos. President Trump storms the globalist stronghold with a message that shatters alliances, exposes hypocrisy, and forces the world to choose sides. Empty chairs. Furious elites. Trade deals ripped apart. From the UN and NATO to China, Greenland, energy collapse in Europe, election integrity at home, and the SAFE Act showdown in Washington — this episode lays out why the old world order is collapsing and what replaces it. This wasn't diplomacy. This was a line in the sand.
Ashish Prashar joins Anthony Davis to discuss how world leaders are responding to Trump's aggressive assault on the global order. The ‘No New War' President who has stirred conflict in Gaza, Iran, Yemen and Nigeria. The true reason behind his attacks on Venezuela, Greenland and how NATO can respond without sabotaging the alliance - only on The Weekend Show.
