In this collaborative livestream with Resistance is Fertile’s Benji Schoendorff, we continue a discussion with Dr. Radhika Desai who brings “geopolitical economic” analysis to the contemporary world system and in particular how global events, especially the Ramadan War, herald an end to Western imperialism as a form of world order. We’ll discuss how Iran and its allies, the Axis of Resistance, and partners from BRICS and the SCO, China and Russia, are reorienting the “multipolar” world and in what ways. We’ll explore the financial, economic, geopolitical, social, and historical conditions. This will be a fascinating opportunity to learn from a leading scholar of geopolitics and economy and imperialism today and historically.
