Why I Can't Stop Thinking About 'The End of History'

Francis Fukuyama's “The End of History and the Last Man” is one of the most insightful books for understanding the strangeness and instability of this political moment. Fukuyama wrote his landmark book more than 30 years ago, and it’s typically remembered as a triumphalist argument, heralding the permanent victory of liberal democracy at the end of the Cold War. But that’s not quite right. Fukuyama also talked about the serious weaknesses he saw in liberal democracy — how it may not fully satisfy the human soul — and his warnings feel very prescient now. So I wanted to have Fukuyama on the show to talk through the ideas in his book and how he sees them today, at a time when liberal democracy seems increasingly imperiled around the world. Fukuyama is a political scientist at Stanford University and the author of a number of other great books of political theory, as well as a new memoir, “In the Realm of the Last Man.” Mentioned: “The End of History?” by Francis Fukuyama “The Righteous Mind” by Jonathan Haidt Book Recommendations: “Recoding America” by Jennifer Pahlka “Why Nothing Works” by Marc J. Dunkelman “The God Test” by Robert Wright Thoughts? Guest suggestions? Email us at ezrakleinshow@nytimes.com.

Reden von Frauen oder 'Sehr geehrte Herren und Damen'

Reden ist Silber, Schweigen ist Gold. So heißt es zwar, aber das traf lange nur auf Frauen zu, während die (mächtigen) Männer dieser Welt eine bedeutsame Rede nach der anderen hielten. Wir mussten aber gar nicht mal so tief graben, um für diese Episode ein paar wirklich beeindruckende Auftritte von Frauen zu entdecken. Aspasia, Dolores Ibàrruri, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Marie Juchacz… Diese Folge ist ein Name- und Zitate-Dropping, damit diese Frauen in Zukunft genauso laut gehört werden wie ihre männlichen Kollegen am Redepult.

Ep. 2: The Cell

Infiltrating the infiltrators. For the first time ever, host and former lead cybersecurity and digital espionage reporter for The New York Times Nicole Perlroth partners with a team of private investigators as they infiltrate a North Korean worker cell. She uncovers what happens after a security firm hires a man calling himself “Joseph.” By turning the tables on one of the world’s most elusive regimes, investigators gain rare, unprecedented access to their hidden Discord ecosystem: leaderboards tracking job applications, interview evasion tactics, and the disturbing levels of access North Korean workers are getting once inside – including, in one case, at an American nuclear utility. They also get a bizarre window into the human culture inside these cells – from their obsession with Minions to their pool parties and steak dinners outside North Korea. What emerges is not just a portrait of a sanctions-evasion operation, but a rare glimpse into how North Korea’s remote worker armies think, collaborate, and survive from behind the screen. To Catch a Thief is co-produced by Nicole Perlroth and Rubrik in partnership with Pod People. To Catch a Thief was written and produced by Nicole Perlroth, along with Khrista Rypl, T. J. Raphael, Rebecca Chaisson and Sam Gebauer. Additional thanks to Allie Pinel, Fendall Fulton, Krissy Clark, Cai Lee, Eunice Park and Aimee Machado. Editing and Sound Design by Erica Huang. Art direction and design by Ben Long, Gareth Strange and Sarah Burley at the John & Jane Agency, and support from John Leestma.

2. The Men That Swing

Catrin creates a FabSwingers account and is quickly inundated with messages from men. Professor Nicola Gavey explains why full consent is not always as simple as saying yes. And one male user describes encounters that left him questioning whether women on the site really wanted to be there. If you are suffering distress or despair, details of help and support in the UK are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.

Ep. 1: Strange Things Are Happening

A new breed of worker is quietly clocking in across the United States. They’re writing code. Managing your passwords. Training the next generation of AI models. They’re gaining trust. And access. On paper, they’re the dream hire. Skilled. Low maintenance. Always remote and often affordable. And by most accounts, they’re doing the work. But strange things are happening. In a new season of To Catch a Thief, host and former lead cybersecurity and digital espionage reporter for The New York Times, Nicole Perlroth, investigates how North Korean agents are infiltrating the global workforce. How did a nuclear-armed regime worm its way onto the payroll of international companies – and why is it so difficult to get them off? To Catch a Thief is co-produced by Nicole Perlroth and Rubrik in partnership with Pod People. To Catch a Thief was written and produced by Nicole Perlroth, along with Khrista Rypl, T. J. Raphael, Rebecca Chaisson and Sam Gebauer. Additional thanks to Allie Pinel, Fendall Fulton, Krissy Clark, Cai Lee, Eunice Park and Aimee Machado. Editing and Sound Design by Erica Huang.
