7 NOV. 2019 · Narenda Modi, Prime Minister of India, rules in the name of hindutva or Hindu Nationalism. His party’s shared vision for India has resulted in massive violence between Muslims and Hindus, as it did during his rule as Chief Minister in Gujarat. Most recently, Modi’s values of Hindu strength have led to the occupation of Kashmir, a massively popular endeavor both in India an within its diaspora. Joining the program to explain the origins of hindutva, the rise of Modi’s BJP party, and its implications for Indian foreign relations, is Dr. Anand Yang, Professor of History and International Studies at the University of Washington.

25 OCT. 2019 · Our introductory episode focuses on the successful campaign in early 2019 to create a Ukrainian Orthodox Church, independent from the Moscow Patriarchate. This religious nationalism formed a major plank of then-President Poroshenko’s platform for re-election. However, in the 2019 elections, he lost in a landslide to Volodymyr Zelensky, a comedian that had impersonated him on a popular show, who ran against him as someone dividing the Ukrainian people. Joining the program to explain the Church that Poroshenko helped create, why it failed him politically, and its implications for geopolitics in Eastern Europe, is Dr. Gene Lemcio, Affiliated Professor in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures at the UW.
