Postwar International Order and Trump Foreign Policy (Recorded Live Show)

After the Second World War, the US and its victorious allies created a set of international institutions and legal regimes designed to protect and spread capitalism and democracy around the world. Intended to promote human rights, peace and stability, reconstruction, and economic development this regime also create the conditions for a fractured world to run on American values and ideals. Trump's attack on Venezuela and its threatening Cuba and Greenland threatens to disrupt this regime. In this show I discuss the regime, how Trump threatens it, and a little about why he might want to destroy it.
