Novara Media

Political scientists agree that we are now living in a "multipolar" world, with power contested by multiple states and blocs. But how we arrived at this formation, and whether the newly powerful actors on the global stage are inherently problematic, remain areas of disagreement. Someone with has a distinct perspective on this new world order is Anne Applebaum, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Autocracy, Inc: The Dictators Who Want to Run the World. Anne sat down with Aaron to discuss Putin’s rise to power, the problem of misinformation, and how Israel fits into the network of autocratic states who share little but a desire to consolidate each other’s power.
