| The Global Re-Order | 06 Dec 2025 | 01:16:50 | |
Watch all of the day’s interviews: As we approach a full year of the Trump administration, the president has transformed the world order. Old institutions like NATO, the United Nations and the World Trade Organization are diminished, even in doubt, and the old trade regime and assumptions about alliances are gone. Relationships are transactional, and soft power is scoffed at. Traditional adversaries like Russia win praise, while there is talk about taking over Canada and Greenland. This is driven not only by those at the top but also by deep shifts to the right in electorates across the West, including in the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and elsewhere. Liberals and liberal values alike seem to be in retreat. Uncertainties dominate: How will China, North Korea and other nations respond to this new world order, and will they see it as an opportunity for adventurism? In this discussion, we asked: Where are we now? And what are the real-world ramifications of these policies, and are they lasting? Panelists: Ehud Barak, Former Prime Minister of Israel; Senator Chris Coons, Democrat of Delaware and a member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations; Mark T. Esper, Former U.S. Secretary of Defense; Avril Haines, Former U.S. Director of National Intelligence; David H. Petraeus, Partner at KKR, Chairman of the KKR Global Institute, Chairman of the KKR Middle East Global Institute New York and Former Director of the C.I.A.; Samantha Power, Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and Former Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development; Fareed Zakaria, Host of “Fareed Zakaria GPS” on CNN Moderator: Nicholas Kristof, Opinion Columnist at The New York Times Filmed live at the 2025 DealBook Summit Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

| The Education of Higher Education | 07 Dec 2025 | 01:21:13 | |
Watch all of the day’s interviews: The Trump administration’s funding threats aren’t the only issue colleges and universities are facing. There’s also rising antisemitism on campus, and challenges in managing student free speech and demonstrations. What is the future of research without government grants and funding? How will the courts adjudicate these issues? The Justice Department is also taking specific aim at multiple universities over international student visas, claims of antisemitism, anti-D.E.I. investigations, and trans athletes and Title IX policy. Americans now have $1.8 trillion in cumulative student debt. Administrative costs continue to rise. Are Americans’ value systems changing toward education, and how? And the bigger question: What do universities’ leaders believe the education they provide is for? What and how are universities contributing to society today? Is there a crisis of faith in our educational system? Universities can be rigid systems. Are they capable of responding to valid criticisms? What do they believe needs to change, and how are they working toward those ends? And as we examine the future of work — and A.I. in particular on the cusp of transforming the entry-level work force — what does the work force of the next generation look like, and how are universities preparing their students? Panelists: Carmen Twillie Ambar, president of Oberlin College and Conservatory; Sian Leah Beilock, president of Dartmouth; Ron Daniels, president of Johns Hopkins University; Daniel Diermeier, chancellor of Vanderbilt University; James Harris, president of the University of San Diego; John B. King, chancellor of the State University of New York and former U.S. secretary of education; Jonathan Levin, president of Stanford University Moderator: Jodi Kantor, investigative reporter at The New York Times Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
