In the premiere podcast of To the Point, host Stefanos Evripidou sits down with international relations scholar and YouTuber Prof. James Ker-Lindsay for a fast-moving, no-jargon conversation about how the world has changed since the end of the Cold War – Iraq to Brexit, Kosovo to Ukraine, Gaza to the Eastern Mediterranean – and what comes next for small states like Cyprus.
Ker-Lindsay argues Iraq marked “the beginning of the end” of U.S. dominance, warns that letting borders shift by force risks a global “might-makes-right” precedent, and insists international law isn’t just a Western construct. We unpack Kosovo’s legacy, the nature of power (great, middle, small), and Cyprus’ role as the EU’s Middle East outpost – including why the island is the natural staging point for European action on Gaza. Beyond geopolitics, we tackle the toxic pull of social media (“Get off Twitter”), corporate power, AI, Universal Basic Income, and why we may need a fundamental rethink of the economic system.
