Épisode 31

lundi 19 mai 2025 • Durée 48:27

This episode explores Turkey’s evolving foreign policy under Recep Tayyip Erdoğan—from assertive moves in the Middle East to its complex ties with NATO and the EU. Is Ankara driven by neo-Ottoman ambition or pragmatic regional strategy?

BRICS Explained: Unity, Division, and the Global South’s Push for Change. Ingrid D'Hooghe and Ksenia Radchenkova

Épisode 30

mardi 22 avril 2025 • Durée 49:26

What is BRICS, really — a loose coalition of emerging economies, or a growing challenge to Western-led global governance? In this episode, we take a deep dive into the origins, goals, and internal dynamics of BRICS, the group that brings together Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa — and now a new wave of members. Why do such diverse countries come together under one banner? What does BRICS actually do, and how effective is it in turning ambition into action? We explore China's and Russia’s strategic interests, the Global South’s discontent with the current international system, and whether BRICS could offer a real alternative to institutions like the UN, G7, IMF, or World Bank. We also discuss recent developments — from the war in Ukraine to U.S. trade policy — and ask: Is BRICS moving toward a shared ideology? Can economic cooperation within the bloc grow? And how realistic is the idea of a BRICS currency — or the broader push toward de-dollarizing global trade? To unpack all this and more, we’re joined by Ingrid D’Hooghe and Ksenia Radchenkova, offering insights on geopolitics, economics, and the shifting architecture of international power.Guests:Dr. Ingrid d’Hooghe is Senior Research Associate at the China Centre of the Clingendael Institute and Senior Research Fellow at the LeidenAsiaCentre, The Netherlands.

Weltmacht China: konfrontativ oder kooperativ?

Épisode 29

jeudi 27 mars 2025 • Durée 55:26

In dieser Episode werfen wir einen Blick auf die geopolitischenEntwicklungen rund um China, sowohl aus westlicher als auch aus chinesischer Perspektive. Wie nimmt China seine Rolle in einer sich verändernden Weltordnung wahr? Wir beleuchten, wie China nicht nur militärische „Hardpower“ einsetzt,sondern auch mit „Softpower“ – durch wirtschaftliche Initiativen wie die „Belt and Road Initiative“ (1B1R) – globalen Einfluss gewinnt. Welche Auswirkungen hat dies auf Afrika und andere Regionen, die die Lücken westlicher Hilfe wie USAID füllen? Und wie sieht China selbst seine geopolitischen Ziele?

Ein wichtiger Teil der Diskussion ist auch, wie sich die Beziehungen zwischen Europa und China entwickeln. Was bedeutet die Entfremdung zwischen den USA und dem Westen für das Verhältnis Europas und China? Welche wirtschaftlichen, politischen und gesellschaftlichen Prioritäten haben die Menschen in China, und wie sehen sie die EU und die USA? Dabei gehen wir auch auf die unterschiedlichen Perspektiven zu Menschenrechten, sozialer Gerechtigkeit und wirtschaftlicher Entwicklung ein.

Abschließend betrachten wir die Frage, wie Europa mit China umgehen sollte – pragmatisch und strategisch, um einelangfristige Partnerschaft zu fördern und dabei die eigene Autonomie zu wahren. Ziel ist es, ein differenziertes Bild von China zu zeichnen, das über die Mainstream-Narrative hinausgeht und auch die Perspektive der Menschen in Chinaeinbezieht.

Syrien im Umbruch: Neue Machtverhältnisse und ihre Folgen für den Nahen Osten. Thomas Schmidinger & Salah Farho

Épisode 27

mercredi 15 janvier 2025 • Durée 54:36

In dieser Podcast Episode wird die aktuelle Situation in Syrien beleuchtet, die mit dem Sturz Bashar al Assads im Dezember 2024 nach über 50 Jahren Diktatur einen tiefgreifenden Wandel erfahren hat. Im Zentrum stehen verschiedene Rebellengruppen, allen voran Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), eine islamistische Gruppe, die unter der Führung von Abu Muhammad al-Julani bzw. Ahmed al Sharaa steht. Diese Gruppen sind oft ideologisch und militärisch heterogen – von islamistischen Fraktionen bis hin zu gemäßigten Kräften, die sich für ein demokratisches Syrien einsetzen. Die Absetzung Assads und die Bildung einer Übergangsregierung werfen wichtige Fragen auf, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Wahrung der Rechte von Minderheiten, wie den Kurden, Alewiten, Drusen oder den Christen, die in Syrien eine bedeutende Rolle spielen. Ein weiterer Aspekt ist der Einfluss der Türkei, die sowohl militärisch als auch politisch stark in die Syrienkrise involviert ist. Die veränderten Machtverhältnisse in Syrien haben nicht nur regionale Auswirkungen, sondern auch Folgen für Europa. Europas Rolle wird dabei vor allem im Kontext des Wiederaufbaus und des Wissensaustauschs zwischen den syrischen Flüchtlingen und den europäischen Ländern betrachtet. Besonders relevant ist der Beitrag, den Syrer, die bereits in Europa leben, durch ihre Erfahrungen und Fachkenntnisse leisten können. Ist ein nachhaltiger Frieden und eine stabile Zukunft in der Region möglich?

Épisode 25

mercredi 13 novembre 2024 • Durée 45:48

The clear victory of Donald Trump, which had been predicted to be a tight race, caught many in the EU by surprise. The first to congratulate him was Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, while on the same day, the German government collapsed. Why, despite his harsh and aggressive rhetoric, was Donald Trump still successful? In times of increasing polarization not only in the US but also in European countries, is the EU prepared for another Trump presidency? What does this mean for the state of US democracy, and how will the change of power in the US affect transatlantic relations? What are the implications for European security, and how will this reflect on the international stage, where two major wars are ongoing in Ukraine and the Middle East? These and other questions are explored in the 25th episode of the Peace Matters podcast by Prof. Vivien Schmidt and Dr. Hannes Swoboda. Guests: Vivien A.

Unpacking the South Caucasus: Geopolitics, Neighbors and the EU's Role. Maia Panjikidze & Zaur Shiriyev

Épisode 24

lundi 21 octobre 2024 • Durée 54:28

In this episode, we explore the intricate geopolitical dynamics of the South Caucasus, focusing on Georgia and Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan plays a crucial role as a key energy supplier and transit route, connecting Europe and Asia, and its relationship with Georgia is vital for both economic cooperation and security. The discussion highlights how Georgia’s pursuit of Western integration is perceived as a choice between Western alignment and Russian influence – an issue central to the upcoming parliamentary elections in the country. We also delve into the EU's role in the region, emphasizing the need for a cohesive strategy that prioritizes peace and stability amid diverse national ambitions. The conversation extends to other regional powers, including Iran, Turkey, and China, examining their influence and interests in the South Caucasus. Both regional actors and the EU must "unlearn" outdated perceptions and adapt to new realities, fostering constructive dialogue and economic cooperation.

Guests:

Maia Panjikidze is a Georgian diplomat and politician who served as the country's Foreign Minister from 2012 to 2014.

The Climate Crisis: Does It Unite or Divide Humanity? Sophia Stanger & Sabrina Kaschowitz

Épisode 23

lundi 30 septembre 2024 • Durée 42:53

How do the concepts we use to discuss the climate crisis shape our thinking? In this episode, we explore different approaches to framing climate change in policy debates, such as viewing it as a national security issue or a tool for achieving peace. We also examine the EU's record in reducing its CO2 emissions and the upcoming UN climate conference, COP 29. Additionally, we discuss the inequalities in the environmental footprint of different nations: often, those who have contributed most to global warming are suffering the least from its consequences. Without overlooking the environmental impact of war and conflict, we turn our attention to Ukraine and Russia, particularly the latter's approach to environmental protection. Finally, we analyze climate policies from a geopolitical perspective, discovering that abandoning old dependencies often leads to the creation of new ones.
