Telegrams from Tehran on "World Class with Michael McFaul"

Épisode 57

samedi 10 mars 2018 • Durée 26:00

The way Iranians interact with their government is changing. With information more readily available through the internet, it is easier for citizens to organize protests but also to make an impact without leaving home. Since the Iranian Green Movement in 2009, the political elite has changed dramatically, but a small, stagnant group at the top still holds the most influence. Mehdi Yahyanejad, a senior researcher in computer science at USC, and Mehrzad Boroujerdi, a professor of political science at Syracuse University, spoke to FSI Director Michael McFaul about how Iran's youth are changing the way the country interacts with its politicians. They visited Stanford to speak at a conference about whether politics and culture are changing in Iran, co-hosted by FSI and and the Hamid and Christina Moghadam Program in Iranian Studies.

Government Can't Save Us from Cyberattacks, but Facebook Can

Épisode 56

vendredi 2 mars 2018 • Durée 23:50

The 2016 cyber campaign to influence the U.S. election has been well documented, but represents only a fraction of what information technology makes possible. Drawing on extensive experience in both the private and public sectors, Paul Stockton, the managing director of Sonecon, outlines how foreign adversaries might use information operations for an increasing number of alarming purposes, sowing discord in a manner that U.S. security forces are unequipped to deal with. Stockton also explains the devastating impact that a cyberattack on American power grids could have, and urges the government to draw on the expertise of the private sector to stay one step ahead of potential threats.

The Modern Civil War

Épisode 55

samedi 24 février 2018 • Durée 22:37

Civil wars have changed. In the last 20 years, the average duration has increased and organizations like the UN have had a harder time keeping the peace. This has been particularly true in the Middle East and North Africa where most peace-keeping and state-building efforts have failed. James "Jim" Fearon, an FSI senior fellow, tells us why civil wars have changed.

Fearon is one of eight FSI scholars confronting civil war threats with the "Civil Wars, Violence, and International Responses" project. Supported by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, FSI's Karl Eikenberry and Stephen D. Krasner gathered experts from around the world to talk about changing international policy to meet these new challenges. We will be speaking with each of the scholars about how civil wars are changing, how they might affect the rest of the world, and what we can do about it.

To learn more about the project, check out the fall 2017 and winter 2018 issues of Daedalus, the journal of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the outreach projects Eikenberry and Krasner are embarking on around the world: www.amacad.org/content/Research/…ject.aspx?d=22262.

Revolutionizing Africa's Food Systems

Épisode 54

vendredi 16 février 2018 • Durée 01:34:01

Ertharin Cousin, the former Executive Director of the United Nation's World Food Programme, leads a panel discussion on the future of African agriculture. African political leaders from the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa concur that more private industry and technological advancement is needed for the continent. Given that famine and corruption is still all too common, African governments need to increase their focus on the security of their food systems. In order to do so, AGRA is working on developing a disease-resistant strain of cassava, a common starch grown throughout the continent. However, high-tech research is not the only solution. Paying attention to the demands of small farmers and creating simple phone apps to track fertilizer use and rainfall can bring just as much benefit.

Épisode 53

vendredi 9 février 2018 • Durée 01:18:06

The Facts on Climate Change on "World Class with Michael McFaul"

Épisode 52

vendredi 2 février 2018 • Durée 23:31

Looking for a reliable source on climate change? Marshall Burke is an assistant professor in the Department of Earth System Science at Stanford University and an FSE fellow. He has studied climate change extensively throughout his career. He tells FSI Director Michael McFaul how the world has already warmed one degree Celsius since pre-industrial times, causing more extreme weather events, a small rise in sea levels and a greater amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. There is virtually no disagreement among scientists that the world is warming, he says, and the vast majority of scientists agree that humans are causing the change. Unless we reduce our emissions, the world will warm four to five degrees in the next century, making bad weather worse and gradually increasing average temperatures everywhere. If this happens, the world's GDP will decrease by about 20 percent, causing massive disruption to the world's economy.

America as a Defender of Democracy with Robert Kagan

Épisode 51

vendredi 26 janvier 2018 • Durée 01:20:22

The liberal world order that arose after World War II did not occur because of the intellectual superiority of liberal ideas, argues Dr. Robert Kagan, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. Instead, it was the military and geopolitical might of the United States that converted countries like Germany and Japan into Western-style democracies. However, in today's world, Kagan believes the United States is ceding this role as a worldwide protector of liberal values, enabling countries like Russia and China to become more authoritarian and threatening the world order. Going forward, only a realistic foreign policy that employs military strength to spread American democratic values can prevent a further decay of democracy, he says.
