Ep 3 - Integrating North and South: A New Strategic Dialogue for Global Leadership

On this episode Thomas Barnett and Rich Suttie discuss the unprecedented resource transfer and migration of species due to human activity over the last sixty to seventy years, and propose a new strategic dialogue for how America can reemerge as a global leader in the face of globalization, climate change, demographics, and middle class consumption. They suggest that America needs to innovate new forms of state affiliation for connecting South to North, in order to broker more viable forms of statehood in the former and modulate the flow of climate refugees to the latter.
