Are we witnessing a hostile takeover of the American-led order by an American president? Is there a coordinated effort among right-wing populist leaders worldwide to reject the liberal international order? Can the United States weather this storm and ensure the endurance of Pax Americana?
In part two of this episode, I sat down with Dr. John Ikenberry, the Albert G. Milbank Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University. He is the Co-Director of Princeton’s Center for International Security Studies, a Global Eminence Scholar at Kyung Hee University in Seoul, South Korea, and a former Visiting Professor at the University of Oxford.
One of the foremost scholars of the liberal international order, Professor Ikenberry described Donald Trump as a \"narcissist who filters the world through his own ego.\" And yet, he remains optimistic, arguing that America’s singular role in the world cannot be so easily dismissed.
