In every fifth episode of this podcast, we will go through the news of the past month and relate to our analysis of our past recordings. In this week’s episode we will specifically talk about: Covid-19 measures and their damages, income inequality and trust in institutions, the protests in Iran, Neocolonialism and the COP27, and, finally, Türkiye resisting Western determinism.
