This is the first episode of our Empire and the Deep State series--an in-depth exploration on my new book American Exception: Empire and the Deep State. I am joined by series co-host Ben Norton of Multipolarista as well our own Seamus McGuiness who is producing the series. We discuss the book's origins and the main research questions that propelled the research and scholarship. Essentially: Why does US foreign policy remain unchanged across administrations  and why has US democracy declined with the rise of the US global dominance in era following World War 2?
