    S1E9 | China's Three-Child Policy: Demographic Control and Women's Role in China

    The most famous example of a birth control regime recently underwent a major shift. The Chinese government has announced that it is now possible for Chinese families to have three children, rather than two. But what does that mean for Chinese society and its growth? We discuss it with Sichen, a young Chinese professional, who wrote her Master's dissertation on the One Child Policy. We talk about the policy's impact on women's role and whether it could be actually counterproductive. Join us for this thrilling and highly topical chat!

    S1E8 | Tracking La Bestia: Immigration and Policy in AMLO's Mexico'

    Immigration from Mexico into the US has been a constant issue in American politics. While Trump and his wall have indeed made it around the world, much more is usually ignored about the problem. In this episode of Jetlagged, we welcome our Mexican guest and friend Roberto to talk about Mexico and immigration, with a special eye on those less well-known aspects, such as the troubles at Mexico’s southern border and the increasing militarisation of the country by the current president. Roberto is a political analyst at Teneo in London and has previously studied at UCL. Before that he was a political activist in Mexico.
