You, Me and the Economy
In this episode, Anuradha Chenoy unpacks the current phase of imperialism, where U.S. hegemony is being reasserted through military alliances, NATO expansion, and active support of genocidal violence. She explains how fascism is not an accident but a political project of capital growing across the world as democratic spaces shrink.
Yet, amidst this, Anuradha highlights the power of democratic resistance: non-violent, collective movements rising globally to counter authoritarianism. But can countries truly counter U.S. hegemony or are their responses merely new forms of self-interest?
š§ Tune in for a sharp and urgent reflection on imperialism, resistance, and the future of global democracy.
