Understanding the Escalation Ladder.

In this episode of the iDeep Dive Podcast, we break down the escalation ladder model, explaining how conflicts progress from diplomacy to full-scale war. We also explore "escalation dominance," where one party controls the pace of conflict escalation.

Using real-world examples from the Russia-Ukraine war, US-China relations, and Middle Eastern proxy conflicts, we demonstrate how these concepts play out in international politics. The episode highlights the importance of managing escalation dynamics to prevent uncontrolled conflicts and navigate today's complex geopolitical landscape.
