    Argentina: The Milei Experiment (One Year Later)

    Javier Milei swept into the Argentinian Presidency on the back of a populist and popular yet controversial movement. But what has happened so far (one year in) and what does the future hold? How does Milei’s economic prescription fit in the political and economic history of Argentina? What lessons can we draw for Argentina, South America and the United States as Trump prepares to take office? What is the best and worst case scenario and what trends are taking shape right now? Join us for an in-depth conversation with Prof. Matías Vernengo, Full Professor at Bucknell University, and the Director of the Bucknell Institute for Public Policy (BIPP).

    Future Materials Series: Plastic Waste/Spider Silk

    We produce over 400m tonnes of plastic waste every year but what if you could convert that waste into ecofriendly spider silk and other materials? What if you could engineer a bacteria to digest and transform polyethylene plastic waste – the kind used in many single-use items – into a high-value protein product? This isn’t science fiction – it’s actual science. Join us for an informative and engaging conversation with Prof. Helen Zha and Prof. Mattheos Koffas (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) to learn more about their groundbreaking research. This is part of The Global List Podcast's ongoing “Future Materials” series which examines innovative & sustainable breakthroughs in materials science, biomaterials, bioengineering, biotechnology and nanotechnology.

    The Ukraine-Russia War: 2023 Lessons and 2024 Insights

    The Ukraine-Russia War, the largest armed conflict in Europe since WW2, will reach the 2-year mark on February 24, 2024. It’s a critical milestone to assess the overall progress and what lies ahead. We flew to Berlin for another in-depth and engaging conversation with Dr. Marina Miron of King’s College (London). We covered a wide range of topics including Ukraine’s 2023 counteroffensive (what went right/wrong), the key lessons learned, relative strengths and weaknesses, strategic and tactical factors, the rapid advances in drone warfare, NATO’s challenges and opportunities, PMCs and the overall outlook for 2024. We also discuss Russia’s broader war and multipronged effort in geopolitical realignment, information/cyber warfare and active measures. This is a conversation you need to hear.

    How do you tackle Misinformation, Disinformation, and Malinformation in the age of Artificial Intelligence, Social Media, and Hyper Partisanship?

    The Supply Chain Riddle

    More than ever before, global companies are forced to deal with critical issues in the supply chain such as forced labor and conflict minerals. For example, the average smartphone contains more than 40 different minerals including four “conflict minerals" (tin, tantalum, tungsten, gold). Cobalt, a critical component in lithium-ion batteries, is mostly produced in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), which has struggled with periodic violence and human rights abuses. So, how can companies (especially manufacturers) guarantee responsible sourcing, gain visibility into the supply chain, effectively manage risks and ensure sustainability? How can they keep up with emerging regulations as well as stakeholder expectations? As part of our “Sustainable Business” series, we traveled to Washington D.C. and the DRC to speak with Jamie Wallisch of Assent on the key trends, challenges, and opportunities.

    Decoding Terrorism

    How do you get inside the mind of an extremist? What are the building blocks of radicalization and what does de-radicalization look like? How is technology fueling extremism and what’s behind current trends in global and domestic terrorism? In this first episode of season 2, we fly to London for an eye-opening conversation with Prof. Peter Neumann, Professor of Security Studies at the Department of War Studies, King’s College, and founder of the International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation. It has been 22 years since the tragic September 11th attacks and launch of the Global War on Terror but there are old challenges and new threats to contend with – abroad and at home. Join us as we dig deeper into a complex topic that affects us all.
