Thank you for giving our very first episode a listen!
Since this was our first episode, we wanted to start off by putting US foreign policy tendencies in a historic and cultural context. Why does the United States of America seem compelled to intervene in conflicts happening all around the world when they seem to be none of America’s business? Well, there are two reasons: 1) the nature of war as a human condition, and; 2) a lingering reflex from the Cold War. Interested? Great!
