Global Power Shifts and the Future of U.S. Influence

In this episode, the Macrocast team is joined by global forecaster and author David Murrin. Using Murrin’s international relations theories as a framework for analysis, they take a macro-level view of the U.S. economy and its role in a shifting global order. The discussion explores whether the U.S. is in decline, the impact of global conflict—from the Middle East to Ukraine—and the role of debt. The episode concludes with insights from December’s job market data.
