Past and Present Power with Peter Frankopan

Has western civilization fallen behind the rest of the world? Should the United States and Great Britain establish better foreign policy with the rising Global South? What can history teach us about global viewpoints? Zachary and Emma speak with Peter Frankopan, global history professor at Oxford and author of several books including his recent title, "The Earth Transformed." They discuss the worldwide effects of the United States' recent domestic focus, what to learn from India's neutral stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, how Middle Eastern nations are part of a world on the move, and if the world is heading toward a new dark age. What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
