In this episode of Going Underground, we speak with Prof. Samuel Moyn, Chancellor Kent Professor of Law and History at Yale University. He discusses the new humanitarian approach to war and secrecy over brutality from the Russia-Ukraine conflict to Obama’s expansion of the war on terror, Putin’s compelling account of the West’s many illegal wars on the eve of his incursion into Ukraine, which Moyn calls an illegal act, the global South’s response to the Russia-Ukraine war, their fatigue over ‘selective righteousness’ from great powers, the changing geopolitical landscape, the passing of the unipolar world, the dangerous new Cold War with China and much more.
