World Politics Review is excited to present its new weekly podcast, Trend Lines. Every Friday, host Peter Dörrie will have a conversation with a WPR editor—the Briefing—about the week’s significant events and issues. Then, in the second part of the show—the Report—a WPR contributor or on-the-ground source will take a more in-depth look at a single issue.
This week in the Briefing, WPR Editor-in-Chief Judah Grunstein and Peter Dörrie discuss the COP21, Burkina Faso’s election, corruption and the shift to right-leaning politics in Latin America. In the Report, WPR contributor Ian Quick gives his insights into how the international community should rethink its approach to engaging with fragile states.
