Alex Krainer: When “the Few” Run the World, “the Many” Should Rise

The world order is changing. The West is no longer the undisputed center of global power. Europe is gradually experiencing a decline in influence. Developing nations are emerging as formidable competitors. Economic elites are increasingly locked in battles with one another. Meanwhile, public awareness is rising in a wave unlike anything seen before.These are the arguments put forward by Alex Krainer, market analyst and founder of Krainer Analytics, in his conversation with Gita Wirjawan. In this episode, Krainer invites us to rethink the long-term trajectory of our world and reflect on what truly matters about our shared humanity in an era of war: preserving our freedom, or becoming servants of the system.Full topics:0:00:00 - Intro0:01:30 - Grew up with history, power, and politics0:05:50- How war intellectually shaped Alex Krainer0:11:40 - "The European Union is going to disintegrate"0:20:26 - Civil war: "The clash is inevitable"0:28:30 - Ukraine-Russia hostility “will never end”?0:34:45 - Neocolonialism: “You’re conquering a country through debt."0:39:35 - Oil price could worsen0:43:55 - Eschatological look of the Middle East conflict0:50:53 - Iran: “This isn’t Trump’s war”0:53:45 - We can’t avoid Thucydides Trap1:00:40 - Oligarchy, “this is by design”1:08:30 - Why we can beat plutocracy#Endgame #GitaWirjawan #AlexKrainer------------------You may also like these episodes:   • We’re Not in World War III Yet, Realist Jo...      • Francis Fukuyama: Is Western Civilization ...      • Myth on Capitalism and Sex Industry - Kimb...  ------------------Special thanks to our “future narrators” channel members:Mariko Yoshihara, Yemotto IBRAHIM, hobi kluyuran, Fajar Prasetyo, Dyah Firgiani, Arie Gunardi, Yayi Trisnawati D, Teddy Chow, Wwertyssnb, Widi Aphrian, Faizal …Mariko Yoshihara, Yemotto IBRAHIM, hobi kluyuran, Fajar Prasetyo, Dyah Firgiani, Arie Gunardi, Yayi Trisnawati D, Teddy Chow, Wwertyssnb, Widi Aphrian, Faizal Tajuli, hndraable, hendro trihatmojo, Muhammad Taufik Evendi, Qun＇an Syukrilah, Charles Andrew Tang, Ariyo Arinsa Putra, Reda Bellarbi, Jaz Simbolon, Muhammad Ismail Mubarak, KATE WOLSKA, rrtrent892, Itje Chodidjah, Geralt Fajar Bukan, Jack Duan, Elmi CK Ong, Lucy March, Anggun Noventina, Irawan Purwono, Krishna Putra, Agnes Pranindita, nazaruddin nasir, 747sgw, Patricia S, Gusko Adnyana, Jerry Budiman, Mawan Darmawan, diah anggraini, Adrian Baskoro, Bambang Haryanto, Ezwan Zakaria, Irene Kurniati, Naufal M, Kianti Darusman, Revolution R, liza dewi, Joanna felicia, Susanto Uno, Taswin Munier, M Firaldi Akbar Zulkarnain, Seno wibowo, Hendry Ahen, Ilham R, Ferdy Reza, Ayu Arman, Haju Ara Podcast, Flores Exotic Tours, Niki S, Anita Amalia, Dewi Risnawati, birgietta katherine, Derry Harnanda, Ridwan Sakidja, Rita Sahara
