Greetings to all listeners and readers!!

For decades, precisely 75 years, the United States led the world, shaping politics, economy, and culture. This aspect is changing. The rise of non-Western countries- China, Russia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Turkey, Brazil has led to a decline in the generally understood Western-led Liberal/Rules-Based Order. With contemporary issues like protectionism, the rise of illiberal democracies, alternative politics, the Ukraine War, Gaza, and much more, we are experiencing a new type of geopolitics, like we have never seen before. This episode, hence, comprehensively tries to cover various subthemes under the road to multipolarity.

Greetings to all listeners and readers!!

Kerala Politics is undergoing a big churning with just ten months to go for the Kerala Assembly Elections 2026. Currently, the results of the Nilambur Elections have changed the dynamics of Politics in the state. Largely, the politics in Kerala has been centred around the UDF-LDF duopoly, but the rise of the BJP through Christian outreach, and the winning of Suresh Gopi MP in Thrissur. The ruling LDF is facing massive anti-incumbency, but at the same time is trying for an LDF 3.0. UDF, which has lost two successive Assembly elections, is trying to make a big comeback. In light of these events and issues, the current podcast episode will dive into various intricacies of Kerala Politics.

Please note that this podcast episode was recorded before the Nilambur Election Results were declared.
