#24 Pt. 2 - Eurasia, Africa, and Latin America: How Power Really Moves in 2025
Update: 2025-10-22
Description
In this three-part special, host A.R. explores whether today’s tensions reflect a clash of civilizations—or a more complex shift toward a world of regions and emerging “super civilizations.” We connect identity, power politics, and the real engines of influence: infrastructure, technology, finance, and media.
What’s inside:
- Eurasia’s integration web: BRI, EAEU, SCO—geoeconomics over ideology
- Africa’s leverage: AU/ECOWAS, coups, critical minerals, and Ubuntu as a cooperative ethos
- South America’s calculus: MERCOSUR/UNASUR and hedging between China, the U.S., and the EU
- Middle East dynamics: Gaza’s fallout, Saudi–Iran détente, Syria’s partial normalization
- U.S.–China rivalry: trade, chips, standards, and the supply chains behind power
- Media polarization: how to stay informed without getting played
Key takeaways:
- Regionalism is rising—fewer clean blocs, more hedging and overlapping ties.
- “Clash” narratives explain little without economics, geography, and tech.
- Infrastructure corridors and standards quietly shape the balance of power.
- Media literacy is strategic: diversify sources, verify claims, avoid rage-bait.
