EPISODE SUMMARY This week we explore the role of military technology in modern warfare. EPISODE NOTES Despite Putin's expectation of a swift victory, over one year on from his full-scale invasion of Ukraine, that country's defenders are still fighting – and, indeed fighting back. One important area in which Ukraine has managed to stay ahead of Russia is in military technology. A new report from the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change examines the role of military technology in the Russia–Ukraine war, and considers the lessons that can be learnt from it. One of the authors, Dr Melanie Garson, Associate Professor in International Conflict Resolution & International Security here in the UCL Department of Political Science, and also Acting Director of Geopolitics and Cyber Policy Lead at the Tony Blair Institute, joins us today to discuss intelligent warfare, military technology and AI.

The Good Friday Agreement and the Dayton Peace Agreement in Bosnia and Herzegovina have often been compared as the two best-known and longest-lasting power-sharing or consociational agreements from the 1990s. The post-Brexit debate on possible referenda on a united Ireland has added a new dimension to this comparison. If referenda lead to the creation of a united Ireland, what does the experience of Bosnia and Herzegovina offer to the debate on the political structures of a united Ireland? In this episode, Tajma Kapic and John Doyle consider how the experience of the DPA may help shape future political arrangements in a united Ireland. You can read Tajma Kapic's paper, as it appears in Irish Studies in International Affairs, at doi:10.1353/isia.2022.0001 Tajma Kapic is a doctoral researcher at the School of Law and Government, Dublin City University.

Born out of her experience working within International Conflict Resolution, Dr Donna Hicks speaks with Matt Meyer about The Dignity Model and the vital role that dignity plays in the workplace, human leadership and building a culture that brings out the best in people.

For the last few years I have become very interested in this central part of any Irish Unity discussion - the UK subvention to NI.  Northern Ireland relies on the UK exchequer, to provide a subvention (grant) so it can pay it's bills every year.  In essence we run what's called a fiscal deficit, in that we don't generate enough money in the NI economy to pay our bills. If NI was a business it would be labelled as insolvent, but in relation to the UK, it is not the only region that is technically "insolvement". The UK government claim, through the Office of National Statistics (ONS) that the current subvention is £9.5BN, which is a payment they claim to make every single year to NI.  However over the last couple of years as the unity discussion has gathered legs, more and more people are starting to look into things like the subvention, to find out what is the real figure, as it's kind of important to know, as in all likelihood, we are going to have a border poll on the island of Ireland in the next 10 years.  John Doyle is the Director of DCU Institute for International Conflict Resolution and Reconstruction, and in June of this year, he published a peer reviewed paper to look into the subvention and try and figure out what the actual cost is, should there be a United Ireland over the next number of years. In this conversation, John sets out his body of work, which took him around nine months to produce, which really is a very educational and fascinating listen.  The big ticket items on this subvention payment list are Pensions, (£3.5bn) National Debt (£1.6bn) Defence Expenditure (£1,14bn) Outside Expenditure (765M) and an underestimate of the tax revenues of some £500M. Following his investigations, John is of the view that any subvention is actually closer to £2.8BN, if there were ever to be a United Ireland.  For me it was very interesting to get into the detail on this, as ultimately should the occasion arise where the majority of people on the island of Ireland want Irish Unity, this negotiation on the subvention, and to keep it simple, will ultimately end up in a kind of a "horse deal", between both sets of governments, which is fascinating in itself. Over the last twelve months I have gravitated to a position where the subvention for me is somewhat of a red herring, and this conversation proved that academically and financially, there is now no reason to assume that the Republic of Ireland cannot afford to take on N Ireland.  In fact If you revert to the Hübner report of 2016, it sets out in more detail that over the first eight years of a new Ireland, with an all island economy, there would be a €35BN positive net swing in revenue, as a result of the new economic structure. This is one of the key parts of any Unity discussion, and I am very grateful to John for speaking to me earlier this week on this issue, and I congratulate him on his paper, and would encourage you to download it and read it yourself.

When you hear the term 'World Government', how does it make you feel? Afraid, hopeful, neutral? Well, for many people around the world there is no greater threat, no event more to be avoided, than the spectre of world government or a planet of global democracy where all were equal participants in choosing a government that quite literally represented the interests of everyone. In today's episode we speak with long-time international peace and security and human rights advocate and analyst Frederick John Packer who is the Neuberger-Jesin Professor of International Conflict Resolution at the Faculty of Law of the University of Ottawa in Canada. In this conversation John and Scott delve deeply into the many real (and not so real)hurdles in place that will need to be overcome if the quest for a unified global polity is to ever come to fruition. Taped during the height of the Black Lives Matter demonstrations across the world, Episode 23 asks whether now is the time for all of us to no longer accept things as they are and begin to jointly venture to build the much brighter future all of us know in our hearts is possible. In so doing, all of us can bring Planet Love just one step closer.

"Everything is negotiable.  Whether or not the negotiation is easy is another question."  - Carrie Fisher Whether it is negotiating with the plumber who is going to fix your toilet, your twelve year old over cleaning her room or with your boss for a raise, we negotiate matters big and small every day.  The difference is, when we sit down at the table to negotiate our divorce settlement with our soon to be ex-spouse, the emotions are high and the decisions can be some that will impact our lives and our family for years to come.  We worry that we aren't up to the task but that is where Professor Andrea Schneider can help.  She literally wrote THE book that teaches lawyers how to negotiate. Negotiation Essentials for Lawyers!  In fact, Professor Schneider gives negotiation trainings around the world to law school students, corporations, law firms, court systems, and even other faculty and she is here to help you get ready for your divorce negotiation.  Host Susan Guthrie and Professor Schneider review all the steps you need to take to arrive at the best settlement that you can, from pre-negotiation preparation to how to get your spouse to agree to what you want.  This is essential listening not just for those who are divorcing, but really everyone, because these skills are necessary every day and in every way! Some Highlights from this episode: Find out why you may already have more negotiation skills than you think you do. What happens in a negotiation that gives you a signal that you need to pay attention because this is important? Why are the steps you take BEFORE the negotiation some of the most important and what are they? How do your goals, interests and limits play into your negotiation strategy?

Justin Zoradi’s important work began the day he decided to no longer deny opportunities to others that he demanded for himself. This realization was sparked while working in South Africa in 2006, where he met several bright students who wanted to go to college but couldn't afford it. Today, Justin Zoradi is an award winning social entrepreneur, the author of the book Made for These Times, and the founder of These Numbers Have Faces, an international education nonprofit helping African youth attend college and transform their countries forever. Truth be told, this social enterprise started during the recession in 2008, with zero business skills from the couch of Justin’s apartment. The rest is history. Justin holds an MA in International Conflict Resolution from Portland State University and a BA in Communication Studies from Westmont College. His past work includes Doing Work That Matters, as well as his upcoming book, Made for These Times: A Start-Up Guide to Calling, Character, and Work That Matters available for pre-order. In this conversation, Branden and Justin dive deep into a story of empowerment, responsibility and clarity as a compassionate leader trying to make a difference in the world.
