Summary

• It’s Podmasters’ 10th birthday! Get an extra 10% off a year’s Patreon backing. Wars around the globe are drawing eerie comparisons with the late 19th and early 20th Century, when Great Powers clashed in an atmosphere of nationalist populism. Are we – like then – on an inevitable march toward world war, or already deep in a second Cold War? Yale historian and Cold War expert Professor Odd Arne Westad joins Seth Thévoz and suggests we may be looking at the wrong era entirely – and why it may “not be possible to turn back” from the next chapter of history. • Buy Arne’s book The Coming Storm from our affiliate bookshop and you’ll help fund the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.
