The Arms Trade - Let’s Talk About Big Weapons

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mardi 1 octobre 2024 • Durée 24:10

In this episode, we’re talking about big weapons: bombs and the weapon systems that convey them. We dive deep into the military industrial complex and explore what it will take to rein in both nuclear and conventional weapons on a global scale.

Bridget speaks with two of the leading activists and researchers on nuclear and conventional weapons, respectively:

Ray Acheson is a writer and organizer against war, militarism, and the arms trade, and in support of the abolition of the carceral system and other structures of state violence. They are the Director of Reaching Critical Will, the disarmament programme of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, which is the world's oldest feminist peace organization. And they also served on the steering group of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, which won the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize. Find out more about Ray at rayacheson.com.

Bill Hartung is a Senior Research Fellow with the Quincy Institute, and a leading researcher and activist on U.S. major conventional weapons systems. He literally wrote the book on Lockheed Martin, which is the top defense company in the world. He has analyzed decades of US arms sales policies, and regularly offers expert insights to major US news outlets. You can stay on top of Bill’s work at quincyinst.org.

We Thought We Solved World Peace

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

mardi 24 septembre 2024 • Durée 33:05

When host Bridget Conley was a college student in the 90s, there was this air of optimism. It might sound crazy to say now, but she and her colleagues honestly believed they had solved world peace.

In this first episode of Disrupting Peace, Bridget speaks with Yale law professor Sam Moyn and South African activist Mamello about what went wrong in the 90s, and what it would take to turn things around by 2050.

Sam Moyn is Professor of Law and History at Yale Law School, and co-host of “Digging a Hole: the legal theory podcast.” He’s written several books that complicate key tenets of peacebuilding, including human rights, liberalism, economic equality, and the laws of war. Follow Sam Moyn on X at @samuelmoyn.

Mamello is head of campaigns at the South Africa-based organization, Open Secrets. Open Secrets holds the profiteers of economic crime, human rights abuses, and war to account. She was one year old when Nelson Mandela was elected president in 1994, and grew up amidst massive political change in South Africa. Find out more about Mamello and Open Secrets at opensecrets.org.za.

Costa Rica: How To Be President If You Don’t Have A Military

Saison 2 · Épisode 5

mardi 1 avril 2025 • Durée 26:09

What's it like to lead without a military? In this episode, we focus on Costa Rica, and explore what happens when a country abolishes its military, Costa Rica’s approach to domestic security, and the ways that having a military can increase violence and instability in a country…Plus we’ll have our first former president on the show!

Carlos Alvarado Quesada served as President of Costa Rica from 2018 to 2022. While president, he focused on combating climate change, defending human rights, democracy, and multilateralism, which is when countries cooperate to solve problems.

Syria: How Do You Rebuild After a Dictator?

Saison 2 · Épisode 4

mardi 25 mars 2025 • Durée 34:27

How does a country rebuild after overthrowing a dictator?

On December 8, 2024, armed forces led by Islamist rebel group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham overthrew the Assad regime, which had ruled as a corrupt and brutal dictatorship in Syria for over 50 years.

For now, the country is in an in-between phase – what was is gone, but it’s not yet clear what’s coming next. In this episode, we explore what it was like on the ground in the weeks after the Assad regime fell, why it was necessary to have some continuity with the former government, and key areas where Syria remains vulnerable.

Mohammad Kanfash is a PhD candidate at the Center for Conflict Studies at Utrecht University, where he focuses on State-Society relations in post-conflict areas in Syria. He also works on sanctions. Follow Mohammad on Linkedin, and learn more about his work at www.uu.nl/medewerkers/MKanfash

Ali Aljasem is a researcher at the Centre for Conflict Studies at Utrecht University focusing on paramilitary groups in Syria and on humanitarian aid. Ali visited Syria one week after Assad was defeated. Follow Ali on Linkedin, and learn more about his work at www.uu.nl/medewerkers/AAljasem

Note: we recorded this interview in late January. Since then the former leader of the victorious rebel group, Ahmed al-Sharaa, was officially appointed interim President, an interim Constitution has been crafted, and there has been large-scale violence led by Assad loyalists.

South Korea: Successfully Opposing Presidential Overreach

Saison 2 · Épisode 3

mardi 18 mars 2025 • Durée 26:06

Sustaining a democracy often looks mundane. It includes managing different stakeholders, crafting policy, debating nuances and compromising. Ending a democracy can be dramatic: and it almost happened on December 3, 2024 when the president of South Korea, Yoon Suk Yeol, attempted to declare martial law during a televised address.

In this episode, we’ll hear a first-hand account of what happened on the ground that night, and discuss how a political opposition can successfully overturn a president’s power grab.

Jiho Cha is a member of the South Korean Parliament, in the opposition, Democratic Party. By training he is a physician, and has worked in global health and humanitarian affairs. Follow Jiho on Instagram @chajiho_oh and on Linkedin.

Myunghee Lee is an expert on authoritarian politics, democratization, protest and foreign policy in East Asia. She is an Assistant Professor of political science at Michigan State University. Find out more about her work at https://jmc.msu.edu/faculty-staff/directory/Lee.html

Iceland: Lessons From The World’s Leader in Gender Equality

Saison 2 · Épisode 2

mardi 11 mars 2025 • Durée 32:08

What can we learn about building and sustaining a women’s movement from arguably the world’s leaders: Icelandic feminists?

To kick off the season, we’re focusing on Iceland, the country ranked number one for gender equality for 15 years in a row. Together, we explore what makes Iceland unique, how younger generations are pushing the feminist agenda forward, and why limiting freedom around parental leave has increased equality in this volcanic, Nordic country.

Silja Bára Ómarsdóttir is a Professor of International Affairs at the University of Iceland. Her research includes Icelandic and feminist foreign policy, national security, and reproductive rights. Find out more about Silja’s work at: https://english.hi.is/staff/sbo

Tatjana Latinović has lived in Iceland since 1994, when she relocated there from Croatia. She is a Vice President of Intellectual Property at Ossur, a medical device company. But most relevant to this conversation, she’s a human rights activist, focusing on feminist and immigrant issues in Iceland, and is the current President of the Icelandic Women's Rights Association.

Full Transcript

Bridget: Imagine you are president of the United States. It's a little bigger than Costa Rica. What would happen if the US abolished, you know, got rid of its military? How would that be possible and what would that change in the world?

Jorge: Frankly speaking, I could not envisage any scenario in which the US can disarm itself. At least not on my senses. Maybe if I am high… [laughter]

I could think about it because it's not a problem of a specific institution, but it's a problem of changing the global order.

[Music comes up]

I’m Bridget Conley, research director at the World Peace Foundation, and host of “Disrupting Peace”, a podcast about why peace hasn’t worked, and how it still could.

Today, it’s clear the US is backsliding when it comes to democracy and human rights. And it’s not just us. There’s a global shift towards concentrating power in the hands of an ever-smaller group of men – and it's nearly always men – at the top.

So this season, we’re looking at examples of resistance from six countries to see what we can learn. Scholars, activists, and politicians will help us understand how leaders attempt to concentrate power and how people fight back.

We’ll ask what we can learn from Iceland about sustaining a gender equality movement.
