I am joined by returning guest John Feffer, director of Foreign Policy in Focus and author, to discuss the dramatic shifts and fissures in the global "rules-based order." Since our last interview in March 2020, successive crises have challenged the underlying basis of international law and the coherence of the global economic system. Taking our previous interview into account—an examination of the first months of the Covid-19 pandemic, situating it historically—I asked John to help us make sense of the first six months of the second Trump administration. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/john-feffer-3 // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast
