India and Pakistan announced a ceasefire Saturday, after days of fighting along their shared border and in the contested region of Kashmir. While the agreement between the two nuclear powers appeared to be holding, both sides blamed the other for violating the deal. The latest conflict was ignited by a terrorist attack last month in the section of Kashmir controlled by India, but the two countries have been fighting over the disputed region for decades, since the end of British rule and the 1947 partition. Joshua Keating, senior correspondent for Vox covering national security and foreign policy, explains why this latest round of conflict is different.And in headlines: President Donald Trump ordered pharmaceutical companies to voluntarily lower their U.S. drug prices, Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley blasted his party over its plans to slash hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicaid, and the U.S. and China agreed to temporarily slash their tariffs.Show Notes:Check out Joshua's article – www.vox.com/world-politics/412332/india-pakistan-crisis-escalationSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

While most of the coverage of the President's joint press conference with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki, Finland on Monday focused on what was widely seen as Trump's deference towards the Russian president, the former KGB officer was hardly a shrinking violet when his time came to take the microphone. On this week's TrumpWatch, Joshua Keating, a reporter for Slate and author of the book “Invisible Countries: Journeys to the Edge of Nationhood,” takes a deep dive on what Putin could be trying to say with his comments in Helsinki.

Like me, my guest today Joshua Keating, loves maps. His new book "Invisible Countries: Journeys to the Edge of Nationhood" is about borders we see on maps and the borders we don't see.  Josh Keating is a longtime foreign affairs journalist and now an editor at Slate. And in this book he takes readers to places that are not quite countries. This includes places like Abkhazia, Somaliland, the Akwesasne nation between New York and Ontario. He makes an argument that we are currently in a period of what he calls Cartographical stasis--that is, we are in an era in which not many new countries are being created, at least compared to other eras in recent history.  Though, he posits, this period may be coming to an end.     I first go wind of Josh's new book when I read an article he wrote about a soccer tournament for countries that are not quite countries--think of it as the World Cup for quasi countries. And the book kicks off by referencing this tournament. So that is where we begin our conversation.   Support the show!

Guest: Joshua Keating. Topic: EWI CEO and President Cameron Munter speaks with Joshua Keating, staff writer and author of the World blog at Slate, on his upcoming book Invisible Countries. In his book, Keating explores possible reasons why the map of the world, unexpectedly, has remained relatively static in the last 25 years. Referring to cases of states with limited recognition in the international community—Abkhazia, the Mohawk Indian Reservation, Somaliland, Kurdistan and Kiribati—Keating argues for more flexibility in how we define the parameters of what makes a state a recognized country in the modern world.

In the first episode of Fascism: A Slate Academy, Slate writers Rebecca Onion, June Thomas, and Joshua Keating ask what the term fascism means. As Kevin Passmore writes, “How can we make sense of an ideology that appeals to skinheads and intellectuals; preaches revolution while allying with conservatives; adopts a macho style yet attracts many women; calls for return to tradition yet is fascinated by technology; idealizes the people yet is contemptuous of mass society, and advocates both violence and order?” Then they talk to historian Ruth Ben-Ghiat, author of Fascist Modernities: Italy, 1922-1945. Did Mussolini have any ideology beyond the acquisition of power? Who did his fascism benefit, and who were its victims? This abridged version of the first episode of Fascism: A Slate Academy is being made available as a preview. The full episode is only for Slate Plus members.
