Fréquence : 1 épisode/60j. Total Éps: 27

The Dialectic is the flagship podcast of Fair Observer, an independent nonprofit that publishes nearly 3,000 authors from over 90 countries, including former prime ministers, retired diplomats, professors, noted authors and bright young minds from different fields.

Hosts Atul Singh, the editor-in-chief of Fair Observer, and Glenn Carle, a senior partner at the geopolitical risk advisory firm FOI, dive into some of the most important issues of our times. Atul is a Rajput who grew up in India and debated for Oxford while Glenn is a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant (WASP) who grew up in Boston and played ice hockey for Harvard. Atul comes from the Gaharwar (or Gahadavala) clan while Glenn’s ancestors arrived in Plymouth in 1620 on the Mayflower.

Atul served as an officer doing counter-insurgency in India’s volatile border regions (Nagaland and Kashmir) and as a lawyer in the City of London. As editor-in-chief, he predicted Brexit, Donald Trump’s two election victories and the global rise of the far right. Glenn served the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in both strategic and operational roles. He also negotiated trade deals for the US, served in the White House and authored The Interrogator, a book about how he opposed torture as a CIA officer during the global war on terror.

The Rajput and the WASP are caricatures of stereotypes, and both are preparing to be mummies in the British Museum. These quirky characters examine issues through historical, economic and cultural lenses. Both of them have a passion for geopolitics and for making sense of the world.

Atul and Glenn seek to both inform and entertain. Let us know what you want them to cover. Join our community, and share this podcast with friends and family!

Japan — The Aging Land of the Rising Sun | The Dialectic

Épisode 26

dimanche 17 mai 2026 • Durée 01:27:56

In this episode of The Dialectic, Fair Observer’s Founder, CEO and Editor-in-Chief Atul Singh and FOI Senior Partner Glenn Carle, a retired CIA officer who now advises companies, governments and organizations on geopolitical risk, examine Japan’s transformation from the post-World War II “economic miracle” into an aging, heavily indebted, yet increasingly assertive geopolitical power. The conversation traces Japan’s double-digit growth in the 1950s to 1970s followed by the collapse of the 1980s asset bubble in 1990–92, which led to a lengthy period of economic stagnation that has come to be known as the “Lost Decades.”

Atul and Glenn go on to examine the political and social consequences of these shifts: the rise of nationalist conservatism under figures such as Shinzo Abe and Sanae Takaichi, the impact of Japan’s rapidly aging population and collapsing fertility rates, and the increasing need along with a vigorous debate over immigration. They also discuss Japan’s technological response to its challenges such as developments in robotics.

In addition, Atul and Glenn examine how Japan is responding to a weakening Pax Americana, rising power of China and growing uncertainty over long-term American commitments in Asia. The duo further examine Tokyo’s efforts to strengthen coalitions like the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (QUAD) that includes the US, Australia, India and Japan. They highlight economic moves to counterbalance China through initiatives like the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) as well. In a nutshell, Atul and Glenn examine Japan’s changing foreign and defense policy in a rapidly changing world.

Naturally, they speak about Japan’s military transformation decades after World War II. Japan has increased defense spending, is building new aircraft carriers, and acquiring F-35 fighter jets and Tomahawk missiles. Tokyo is also deploying missiles near Taiwan and shifting from a passive defense policy to a more assertive one that involves increased power projection. Atul and Glenn conclude by addressing the question whether Japan can become the stabilizing pillar of a new Asian order without repeating the militarism of its past. They take an optimistic view and are confident that Japan will become more nationalistic for sure but a return to the 1930s style militarism is impossible.
