Podcasts about modern political

So many events have happened recently at home and abroad and today's episode is a spontaneous deep dive on our modern political landscape and how we've changed our minds over the years. When we solidified our core values and used them as a filter for decision making processes, this also included our political beliefs. Whether you agree with us or not, we are here to have an open and transparent discussion because right now, this is the world we are creating for our children and subsequent generations. It's an incredibly important time in our history and we believe leading with curiosity and honesty will unify us going forward.

Since the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, many are taking a look at our political system to consider whether we are capable of having disagreements while remaining civil. On the latest episode of "MichMash," Gongwer News Service's Zach Gorchow and Alethia Kasben examine whether that is possible with State Rep. Mike Harris.

The Leviathan, as mentioned in the Bible, particularly in the Book of Job, Psalms, and Isaiah, is often interpreted as a symbol of chaos, representing the untamed and dangerous aspects of the natural world that stand in opposition to the order and civilization that Yahweh, the God of Israel, strives to establish. This cosmic battle between the deity and the sea monster draws from a rich storytelling of Near Eastern mythology, where such confrontations between gods and chaotic sea creatures were a common motif.

In the latest episode of "The Jeffers Notes", host John Jeffers takes his audience on an exploration of the current American social landscape. This intriguing episode shines light on topics including Generation Z's unique approach towards emotive reasoning, the increasing popularity of secessionist movements across various U.S. states, and the various irregularities cropping up in the US election scene. The discussion kicks off by examining the dichotomy in American Jews' support towards Israel and Palestinians, emphasizing the diverse perspectives within the communities. Jeffers then transitions to addressing the role of Generation Z in influencing current public opinions, and raises concern about the perceived imbalance within our education system that seeks to promote critical thinking. Jeffers isn't shy to emphasize the necessity for active parental involvement in school board decisions, cautioning his listeners about the prevalence of certain ideologies within the American education system. He draws on personal experiences to emphasize this point, appealing for a shift towards a fact-based approach to education. The episode also delves into the growing popularity of secession movements across several U.S. states. Jeffers shares recent data from a YouGov survey that shows noteworthy support amongst residents of states such as Alaska, Texas, California, New York, and more for state secession. He examines the complexities surrounding such drastic decisions, noting the potential legal and societal repercussions. The discussion then turns to the recent irregularities within the US election scene, with a particular focus on discordant strategies in the Republican Party and allegations of inter-party sabotage. The episode provides insightful analysis of contentious legislative applications, the Democrats' new strategy to disqualify potential Republican candidates, and the Supreme Court's stance on maintaining electoral stability. As always, "The Jeffers Notes" seeks to make sense of the often confusing world of US politics and social issues, providing listeners with an unbiased, in-depth analysis of the state of play.

In this week's WhoWhatWhy podcast — marking the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade — I talk with Felicia Kornbluh, professor of history and gender studies at the University of Vermont. In our far-ranging conversation, we delve into significant shifts in the battle for reproductive rights following the Dobbs decision. Kornbluh, drawing insights from her book, A Woman's Life Is a Human Life, sheds light on the resurgence of effective activism in states like California, Ohio, and Kansas. She explores how this wave of reproductive rights activism, ignited by Dobbs, is emerging as a key driver of political participation in 2024, potentially impacting the upcoming elections at local, state, and federal levels.

Felicia Kornbluh explores the future of reproductive rights post-Dobbs, the possible impact on the 2024 election, and the hurdles in broadening the fight. Read More: www.WhoWhatWhy.org

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Peter Boettke interviews Federica Carugati, on reframing modern political economy. Carugati begins by sharing how she began her study of political economy and explains her work on premodern case studies, detailing which factors to consider when selecting premodern societies to apply to the modern day, including elements of size, homogeneity, and exclusion. Boettke and Carugati discuss the process of institution formation and the importance of creative and adaptive solutions. Later, they discuss how we ought to reconstruct the political economy and social science lenses, creating a space for a broader notion of theory and a richer theory of empirical research. Carugati emphasizes the need to build models where we can consider the complexity of human behavior, social norms, values, etc. They end their conversation with considerations of neoliberalism, governance by consent, and lessons on the importance of discipline and passion.Carugati is a lecturer in history and political economy at King's College in London and author of A Moral Political Economy: Present, Past and Future and Creating a Constitution: Law, Democracy and Growth in Ancient Athens.

It is almost a daily occurrence: Jim Crow-era excuses masquerading as modern political affronts. It feels like a broken record, every single day someone of prominence on the left – a politician, a cable news host, an entertainment figure – is accusing someone on the right of being a racist. Sadly, this type of mud-slinging has become so commonplace that it is no longer illegal or even frowned upon by Democrats. Such language is unacceptable and should not be part of any genuine discourse. To restore civility to public debate, there must be an honest dialogue between individuals on different sides of politicized issues which does not include name calling or attempts to delegitimize one's views.Support the show

In today's environment of omnipresent polarization, when even the most fundamental values of democracy are being called into question, ancient drama retains its power to catalyze reflection and discussion on political culture. In addition to their historical value, the tragedies and comedies left to us by ancient authors enduringly evoke—with every reading or performance—values and principles that are surprisingly relevant, universal, and fundamental. What gives them this power? And can ancient plays help us reestablish the foundational principles that define us as citizens? SNF Dialogues is opening a discussion about the resonant political and social messages ancient authors have bequeathed to us and asking whether they can lead us, even today, to catharsis. The Dialogues are curated and moderated by Anna-Kynthia Bousdoukou and are held through journalism nonprofit iMEdD (incubator for Media Education and Development). *The opinions expressed by Dialogues participants, whether representing officially institutions and organizations or themselves, are solely their own and do not necessarily represent the views of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) or iMEdD.

Podcast: Adventures Through The Mind (LS 50 · TOP 0.5% what is this?)Episode: Being A Psychedelic Person In The Modern Political Landscape | Bett Williams ~ ATTMind 132Pub date: 2020-11-06Bett Williams and I explore a number of issues facing the modern politically switched on psychedelic person. We do so with special reference to the damaging impact of social media technologies on our perceptions,  identity, and  behavior; cultural appropriation within psychedelic ceremony building; and the Dark Side of leftist psychedelic politics. All of which grounded in a discussion around what it means to live psychedelically, as a psychedelic person in relationship with the psilocybin mushroom. For context,  this interview was recorded a couple months ago and it's actually just a coincidence (or accidental synchronicity) that it is being released during the week of the 2020 US presidential election.

We discuss Dr. Benjamin Smiths new book! In Understanding Modern Political Ideas, Dr. Benjamin Smith defines and critically evaluates the major political ideologies of the modern period in the light of classical political thought. Drawing on the insights of Thomas Aquinas, Aristotle, Plato, and others, Smith highlights the failures and shortcomings of modern political thought, including the pretensions and fallacies of progressivism, Marxism, and neo-Marxism. In contrast to these ideologies, Smith develops an alternative approach that emphasizes the common good, local community, and personal virtue. Understanding Modern Political Ideas presents a vision of politics rooted in a classical and Christian understanding of the human person.

The sixth Balzan Skinner Lecture with Balzan Skinner Fellow 2014-15 Dr Anna Becker. While ‘gender’ is a well-established subject in many historical disciplines, such as cultural history, social history and global history, the same cannot be said for the history of political thought. Especially once we turn to the sort of early modern political thought that can be seen as republican in a broad sense, women seem to disappear. They are simply not political: they are not citizens, they cannot participate in the sphere of the city or the commonwealth. In my lecture I shall develop a methodological approach to the question of how to write gender in and into the history of political thought in a historically sound and firmly contextual way that avoids anachronisms and show – as Joan Scott has suggested – that gender is indeed a ‘useful category’ in the history of political thought.

In the 2012 presidential campaign, a handful of media outlets deployed "fact-checking" divisions which reported the lies and distortions of the candidates. Some commentators have argued that these truth-squads exposed the inadequacy of standard print and broadcast coverage, much of which seems more like entertainment than news. This forum will examine the changing role of the political media in the U.S. Is our political journalism serving democratic and civic ideals? What do emerging technologies and the proliferation of news sources mean for the future?

In this lecture, James Moore discusses three denominations of Protestant theology: Calvinism, or the dogmatic theology of the Reformed or Presbyterian churches; the theology of the Arminians or the Remonstrants in the Netherlands, the most important of whom for the purposes of this lecture is Hugo Grotius; and the theology of the Socinians, the most significant of whom was John Locke. It is a story that travels from Geneva to Holland, to England, and back to Geneva for some closing remarks on Jean-Jacques Rousseau, whose political principles are taken to be a return to the principles of Calvin and his followers.
