The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is winning elections around the US. Their growing popularity is a democratic response to growing insecurity in an age of oligarchy. Zach Woods (from HBO's Silicon Valley) goes after Democratic strategist James Carville in the best way. Why DSA's victories are key to changing US foreign policy. Why Trump's corruption, oligarchy, the k-shaped economy, and America's imperial wars are all related--The Billionaire’s Coup Playbook explains. And for those who listen to The Un-Diplomatic Podcast, a free crossover release of an episode with actor Morgan Spector covering Independence Day (1996) on The Bang-Bang Podcast.

Why is America no longer the global hegemon? What is world order becoming after liberal hegemony? What's happening to international relations as a discipline? What does it mean to say that the era of ideology is over? In what way does Daniel Bessner sort of agree with G. John Ikenberry? Why does the dominance of liberal capitalism means shedding liberalism, and why does that help explain the world's ongoing polycrisis? Dr. Daniel Bessner (from the American Prestige Podcast) joins Dr. Van Jackson to make sense of the world by way of his essay in The Ideas Letter, "Power Without Ideology: Welcome to the Multipolar World."
