In Governing Forests: State, Law and Citizenship in India's Forests (Melbourne UP, 2024), Arpitha Kodiveri unpacks the fraught and shifting relationship between the Indian State, forest-dwelling communities, and forest conservation regimes. The book builds on years of fieldwork across the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Odisha, and Karnataka with forest-dwelling communities, Adivasi and Dalit activists, lawyers, and bureaucrats, to tell a turbulent story of battling for environmental justice. Kodiveri traces the continuing rhetorics of conservation and sovereignty in the forest practices of the colonial and the postcolonial Indian State, the entanglements between the climate crisis, resource extractivism, and eco-casteism, and credits the forest-dwelling communities for finding courageous and creative ways of securing their access and stewardship of forest resources. Governing Forests hopes for the possibility of “healing of historical antagonisms” between conservationists and forest dwellers through a co-productive model Kodiveri calls “negotiated sovereignty”, a governance paradigm rooted in a jurisprudence of care and repair. Arpitha Kodiveri is an environmental law and justice scholar and assistant professor of political science at Vassar College. Raghavi Viswanath is a postdoctoral researcher and teaching fellow at SOAS, University of London. Her research, supported by the Leverhulme Trust, examines how pastoralists claim grazing rights under India's Forest Rights Act 2006 and how the everyday processes of staking such claims has been impacted by the authoritarian turn in India. LinkedIn.

"The objectives are not necessarily monetary related - but how do we add more value to what those members do in their jobs?" - Anthony WrightAnthony Wright, Independent Director of CPA Australia and Chair of Hanlon Industries, explains the governance challenges that arise for organisations that exist to serve members rather than shareholders.Drawing from his experience with CPA Australia's 170,000 members across 50 countries, Anthony explores how such boards measure success through member satisfaction and educational outcomes rather than financial metrics alone as well as the the sophisticated governance architecture required to ensure that members are appropriate represented on the board, while also ensuring the right skills are available and that there's independence and diversity of thought.________________Follow Podcast Host ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Richard Conway⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on LinkedInFollow ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠boardcycle⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on LinkedInVisit the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠boardcycle website

EqualAI president & CEO Miriam Vogel, co-author of the new book Governing the Machine, joins Washington AI Network founder Tammy Haddad for a timely conversation on AI trust, governance, and global competition. Vogel breaks down the surge in AI litigation, why companies are missing ROI without governance, and how workforce fears are shaping adoption. She argues that America's long-held advantage in brand trust may be its most powerful asset in the global AI race — if leaders act now.

Climate change is exerting increasingly profound effects on societies across the globe. Policy responses are often described as resting on three pillars. The first involves addressing the causes of climate change by reducing carbon emissions and improving carbon capture. Experts tend to refer to this as mitigation. The second concerns adapting to the climate impacts that are already unavoidable in order to reduce the harm they cause, for example by raising sea walls or improving the heat resilience of homes. This is known as adaptation. The third pillar deals with the harms that nevertheless arise, asking who should bear the associated costs and whether these harms can ever truly be compensated. This has come to be known as loss and damage.This episode focuses on that third pillar. Although the definition above is one way to understand loss and damage, it is far from the only one. The concept is contested, and the way it is framed varies between different actors in international climate negotiations. Competing definitions are used strategically in order to influence outcomes.These contests over meaning are only one example of the processes that shape international climate talks. Such processes can construct or, at times, manipulate the negotiation environment, and those with the greatest power often exert the greatest influence over how these processes unfold.A new book explores how these shaping forces operate within the loss and damage arena and argues that they are having a significant effect on the effectiveness of the global response to climate change, and not always for the better.Prof Alan Renwick's guest this episode is the author of that book, Professor Lisa Vanhala of the UCL Department of Political Science, UCL Pro-Vice Provost for the Grand Challenge Theme of the Climate Crisis, and a longstanding friend of the podcast.Mentioned in this episode:Governing the End. The Making of Climate Change Loss and Damage UCL's Department of Political Science and School of Public Policy offers a uniquely stimulating environment for the study of all fields of politics, including international relations, political theory, human rights, public policy-making and administration. The Department is recognised for its world-class research and policy impact, ranking among the top departments in the UK on both the 2021 Research Excellence Framework and the latest Guardian rankings.

Hosts Bill Mann, President of GB Group Construction & Painting, and Brad Bacome, Certified Community Manager at The Manor, sit down with Glenn Youngling, Owner of Youngling Law Firm, to break down the intricacies of governing documents in community associations. They discuss why timely updates matter, how policies differ from rules, and how AI is beginning to shape legal drafting. The conversation also covers the challenges of achieving quorum, engaging owners in the voting process, and the importance of reimbursement assessments as effective enforcement tools.

Another UN War Trump To Head Board Of Peace' Governing Gaza by Ron Paul Liberty Report

As Paul addressed the church in Rome concerning their relation to the governing authorities, we dive through the text to see how this applies in our context.

Guests: Alexander Pabst, Deputy Group CISO, Allianz Lars Koenig,  Global Head of D&R, Allianz  Topics:  Moving from traditional SIEM to an agentic SOC model, especially in a heavily regulated insurer, is a massive undertaking. What did the collaboration model with your vendor look like?  Agentic AI introduces a new layer of risk - that of unconstrained or unintended autonomous action. In the context of Allianz, how did you establish the governance framework for the SOC alert triage agents? Where did you draw the line between fully automated action and the mandatory "human-in-the-loop" for investigation or response? Agentic triage is only as good as the data it analyzes. From your perspective, what were the biggest challenges - and wins - in ensuring the data fidelity, freshness, and completeness in your SIEM to fuel reliable agent decisions? We've been talking about SOC automation for years, but this agentic wave feels different. As a deputy CISO, what was your primary, non-negotiable goal for the agent? Was it purely Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) reduction, or was the bigger strategic prize to fundamentally re-skill and uplevel your Tier 2/3 analysts by removing the low-value alert noise? As you built this out, were there any surprises along the way that left you shaking your head or laughing at the unexpected AI behaviors? We felt a major lack of proof - Anton kept asking for pudding - that any of the agentic SOC vendors we saw at RSA had actually achieved anything beyond hype! When it comes to your org, how are you measuring agent success?  What are the key metrics you are using right now?

Guest article by Paul Dongha . Co-author of Governing the Machine: How to navigate the risks of AI and unlock its true potential. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has moved beyond the realm of IT, it is now the defining strategic challenge for every modern organisation. The global rush to adopt AI is shifting from a sprint for innovation to a race for survival. Yet as businesses scramble to deploy powerful systems, from predictive analytics to generative AI, they risk unleashing a wave of unintended consequences that could cripple them. That warning sits at the heart of Governing the Machine: How to navigate the risks of AI and unlock its true potential, a timely new guide for business leaders. Governing the Machine The authors, Dr Paul Dongha, Ray Eitel-Porter, and Miriam Vogel, argue that the drive to embrace AI must be matched by an equally urgent determination to govern it. Drawing on extensive experience advising global boardrooms, they cut through technical jargon to focus on the organisational realities of AI risk. Their step-by-step approach shows how companies can build responsible AI capability, adopting new systems effectively without waiting for perfect regulation or fully mature technology. That wait-and-see strategy, they warn, is a losing one: delay risks irrelevance, while reckless deployment invites legal and reputational harm. The evidence is already visible in a growing list of AI failures, from discriminatory algorithms in public services to generative models fabricating news or infringing intellectual property. These are not abstract technical flaws but concrete business risks with real-world consequences. Whose problem is it anyway? According to the authors, it is everyone's. The book forcefully argues that AI governance cannot be siloed within the technology department. It demands a cross-enterprise approach, requiring active leadership driven from the C-suite, Legal counsel, Human Resources, Privacy and Information Security teams as well as frontline staff alike. Rather than just sounding the alarm, the book provides a practical framework for action. It guides readers through the steps of building a robust AI governance programme. This includes defining clear principles and policies, establishing accountability, and implementing crucial checkpoints. A core part of this framework is a clear-eyed look at the nine key risks organisations must manage: accuracy, fairness and bias, explainability, accountability, privacy, security, intellectual property, safety, and the impact on the workforce and environment. Each risk area is explained, and numerous controls that mitigate and manage these risks are listed with ample references to allow the interested reader to follow-up. Organisations should carefully consider implementing a Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) system, which brings together all key aspects of AI governance. GRC systems are available, both from large tech companies and from specialist vendors. A GRC system ties together all key components of AI governance, providing management with a single view of their deployed AI systems, and a window into all stages of AI governance for systems under development. The book is populated with numerous case studies and interviews with senior executives from some of the largest and well-known origanisations in the world that are grappling with AI risk management. The authors also navigate the complex and rapidly evolving global regulatory landscape. With the European Union implementing its comprehensive AI Act and the United States advancing a fragmented patchwork of state and federal rules, a strong, adaptable internal governance system is presented as the only viable path forward. The EU AI Act, which has now come into force, with staggered compliance deadlines in the coming two years, requires all organisations that operate within the EU, to implement risk mitigation controls with evidence of compliance. A key date is August 2nd 2026, by which time all 'Hig...

A searing account of how the international community is trying—and failing—to address the worst effects of climate change and the differential burdens borne by rich and poor countries. Climate change is increasingly accepted as a global emergency creating irrevocable losses for the planet. Yet, each country experiences these losses differently, and reaching even inadequate political agreements is fraught with contestation. Governing the End: The Making of Climate Change Loss and Damage (U Chicago Press, 2025) untangles the complex relationship between deteriorating environmental conditions, high politics, and everyday diplomatic practices, focusing on the United Nations' agreement to address “loss and damage” and subsequent battles over implementation. Lisa Vanhala looks at the differing assumptions and strategic framings that poor and rich countries bring to bear and asks why some norms emerge and diffuse while others fail to do so. Governing the End is based on ethnographic observation of eight years of UN meetings and negotiations and more than one hundred and fifty interviews with diplomats, policymakers, UN secretariat staff, experts, and activists. It explores explicit political contestation, as well as the more clandestine politics that have stymied implementation and substantially reduced the scope of compensation to poor countries. In doing so, Governing the End elucidates the successes and failures of international climate governance, revealing the importance of how ideas are constructed and then institutionally embodied. This interview was conducted by Dr. Hannah Pool, a senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Studies of Societies. Her research focuses on human mobilities and her new book has just been published (2025, Oxford University Press). Learn more about your ad choices.

In this message from Romans 13, we're reminded of a truth that often challenges us deeply — that God calls us to honor and submit to the governing authorities He has placed over us. Pastor Jim Schultz gently walks us through Paul's teaching to the church in Rome, written during the cruel reign of Nero, and helps us see that obedience to this command is not about blind loyalty to human rulers, but about faithful trust in God's sovereignty.As followers of Jesus, we are called to live with integrity, humility, and respect — even when it's difficult. This sermon invites us to reflect on how our words, actions, and attitudes toward authority reveal our relationship with God. Join us as we learn how to live as good citizens, love our neighbors, and honor those in leadership, while standing firmly for truth and trusting in God's perfect justice.

In this episode, Xavier Basurto, a former guest of the show, joins Michael to interview Fikret Berkes and Nicole Franz. Fikret is Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the Natural Resources Institute of the University of Manitoba. He is a legend in the field of the commons and social-ecological systems, with some of his most well-known works included Sacred Ecology, Coasts for People, and Navigating Social-ecological Systems. Nicole is a Research Scholar at the Center for Ocean Solutions at Stanford University. She has over two decades of experience working in intergovernmental organizations, namely the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development in Rome as well as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in Paris Michael asks Nicole and Fikret's about their new edited book entitled Governing for transformation towards sustainable small-scale fisheries, which is open access and published by the FAO. The book was written in support of the FAO's Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries, and provides a human-centered, interdisciplinary approach to managing fisheries in a complex world. It addresses challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and privatization by advocating for a shift from top-down, single-species management to cooperative, adaptive governance systems that incorporate the knowledge and needs of resource users. During the interview, Michael and Xavier also take the time to discuss Fikret's long career as a key contributor to the literatures on the commons, social-ecological systems and small-scale fisheries governance.   References: FAO. 2015.

But Abby says she wants Trump's supporters to have a chance to share their points of view on her show—and be challenged in real time. Meanwhile, during the weirdest shutdown ever, Republicans are at risk on SNAP and Obamacare subsidies. And policing the Caribbean and the Pacific to commit summary executions is not America First. Plus, the roots of Bernie Sanders's populist campaigns were planted by Jesse Jackson's runs for the presidency in ‘84 and ‘88.

Governing parties have been quick to condemn Labour's proposed capital gains tax policy. The opposition announced the policy for next year's election campaign, targeting commercial and investment properties, but not family homes. It would funnel the revenue into health. Finance Minister Nicola Willis has been quick to label this scheme as 'half-baked' - and it'll likely drive the country further into debt. "I'm just pleased that New Zealand today can see Labour's alternative for what it is. It's a Labour-Te Pāti Māori-Greens Government that will tax you more, drive the country further into debt and put the economy at risk."

In this passionate Abounding Love episode, I share on how to conduct ourselves as followers of Jesus Christ. Simply, the Word of Grace is to govern our conduct, while following Jesus and doing His work as "fishers of men" (Mark 1:17). He says: "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me" (John 10:27, KJV). His Word is to confirm that it's His voice. Jesus goes on to say: ". . . and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of My hand. My Father, which gave them to Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father's hand. I and My Father are one" (John 10:28-30, KJV).  Just as Jesus and His Father are one, we are one with Him and our Father as fishers of men. We all move out together overflowing in the Spirit, setting others free by the Word of Truth, just as we've been set free. Join me as we study other Scriptures such as 1 Timothy 3:1-16; 4:6-16, and 6:3-21; 2 Timothy 2:1-5,10;  Ephesians 4:30; 1 Thessalonians 5:19; Romans 12:1-2; Galatians 5:1; 22-25; 2 Corinthians 6:14-18; Colossians 3:15-16; Titus 2:1-16, and 1 Corinthians 3:12-15. We'll see how Jesus Christ, His Word and the Holy Spirit empowers us to conduct ourselves.

It's been a week of global upheaval and fragile progress – from a historic prisoner release and tentative ceasefire in Gaza, to the dramatic fall of Madagascar's president amid a military rebellion. In the US, political tensions deepen as yet another Trump critic faces federal charges, raising fresh questions about the weaponisation of justice. In the UK, espionage concerns escalate as MI5 names China a "daily threat" after a collapsed spy trial sparked controversy at the highest levels. Plus, is the internet dominated by bots instead of humans?

In this episode, I talk with Seattle mayoral candidate Katie Wilson, a longtime transit and housing organizer who scored a surprise primary victory against the city's establishment-friendly incumbent. Wilson makes the case for why her deep experience as a community organizer and coalition-builder is precisely the kind of leadership needed to restore faith in government and get big things done.

Governing the people and keeping society “harmonious”, stable and united is seen by the CCP leadership as a core task. The party is now systematically inserting itself into all layers and spheres of society. Johannes Heller-John talks to MERICS Experts Katja Drinhausen, Head of the Politics and Society Program, and Nis Grünberg, Lead Analyst. Together with Alexander Davey they are the authors of the report “Serving the people by controlling them: How the party is reinserting itself into daily life”. From their observations, the CCP is merging public service and control at the very local level. In their view “this is something that Xi Jinping really has put a lot of effort and resources into it since he came to power: to put the party as an organizing and structuring factor into social organization.”----This podcast is part of the project “Dealing with a Resurgent China” (DWARC) which has received funding from the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement number 101061700.Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union.

On 10th October, 1967 a treaty went into force that has gone on to become the backbone for all international space law – a United Nations-approved agreement known as the The Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies, but better known today as the Outer Space Treaty. It's a relatively succinct document of just 17 articles, some as short as a single sentence, but it represented a lot of fundamentally very challenging cooperation at the time. Not least because it came about when the Cold War was in full swing, and both the United States and the Soviet Union wanted to prevent the expansion of the nuclear arms race into space.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain why the principles of the Antarctic Treaty of 1959 turned out to be a good fit for rules on what can and can't be done in outer space; revisit everyone's favourite topic of property law in the 13th century; and discuss whether Elon Musk will, according to the law, own other planets if he lands on them.

Thought viceroys and colonial administrators were a thing of the past? Tony Blair is being lined up to run the “Board of Peace” for a reconstruction authority for post-conflict Gaza and observers are agog. Historian and Bunker regular Alex von Tunzelmann takes us on a tour of the inglorious history of viceregal rule. Where did the role come from? Was it ever a particularly efficient way to run a country you probably shouldn't have been in anyway? And what cautionary tales should Blair learn from cases as diverse as the Raj, post-Saddam Iraq and Paddy Ashdown's control of Bosnia?  • Buy Indian Summer: The Secret History of the End of an Empire by Alex von Tunzelmann through our affiliate bookshop and you'll help fund The Bunker by earning us a small commission for every sale. Bookshop.org's fees help support independent bookshops too. • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • Head to nakedwines.co.uk/thebunker to get 6 top-rated wines from our sponsor Naked Wines for £39.99, delivery included. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

Drawn from the biblical story in the book of Genesis, “Babel” has come to stand for the challenge of communication across linguistic, cultural, and ideological divides—the confusion and fragmentation that arise when we no longer share a common tongue or understanding. Today's guest John Wihbey,  an associate professor of media Innovation at Northeastern University and the author of a new book titled Governing Babel: The Debate Over Social Media Platforms and Free Speech—And What Comes Next that tries to find an answer to how we can create the space to imagine a different information environment that promotes democracy and consensus rather than division and violence. The book is out October 7 from MIT Press.

What happens when a CTO and a CIO of a global tech company sit down together to talk about AI? That's the starting point of today's episode, where I'm joined by Jeremy Ung, CTO at Blackline, and Sumit Johar, the company's CIO. Rather than chasing the hype, we focus on what AI really means for executive decision making, governance, and business outcomes. Both leaders open up about how their partnership is blurring the traditional lines between product and IT, and why the board is demanding answers on topics that once sat deep in the technology stack. Jeremy and Sumit explain why AI is not just another SaaS subscription and why expectations have changed so dramatically. For decades, technology was seen as predictable, a rules-based engine that followed instructions without error. AI feels different because it speaks, reasons, and sometimes makes mistakes. That human-like experience is what excites employees, but it is also what unsettles them. This is where education and governance come in, helping teams learn how to question, verify, and trace AI outputs before they make critical decisions. We also explore how AI agents are beginning to work across tools like SharePoint and email, raising new compliance and security questions that CIOs and CTOs must answer together. The conversation turns to AI sprawl, a problem that mirrors the SaaS explosion of a decade ago. With new AI tools emerging every week, enterprises risk overlapping investments and fragmented initiatives. Sumit shares how Blackline uses two governance councils to keep projects aligned. One is dedicated to risk, pulling in voices from legal, security, and privacy. The other is focused on transformation, evaluating whether requests for new AI capabilities make sense, or whether they duplicate what already exists. The signal that sprawl is taking root, he says, is when requests for tools suddenly jump from a few each month to a dozen. We also tackle the build versus buy dilemma. Budgets haven't magically increased just because AI is hot. Jeremy argues that building only makes sense when it reinforces a company's core advantage. Everything else should be bought, integrated, and kept flexible so that organizations can pivot as the AI landscape changes. Both leaders stress that trust, auditability, and value delivery must sit at the center of every investment decision.  

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – You may like one team's agenda above the other, but are you willing to sell your rights so they can play this game with our future? Like a tag-team wrestling team, the Democrats and Republicans seem to take turns infringing on our rights.
