Why did Yugoslavia collapse? In this thought-provoking episode, political economist Susan Woodward dismantles the dominant narrative that ethnic nationalism led to the disintegration of Yugoslavia. Instead, she offers a compelling political-economic analysis centered on the impact of IMF and World Bank austerity measures during the 1980s and how these reforms alienated the professional classes in relatively advanced regions like Slovenia and Serbia.

We explore:

The economic structure of Yugoslav society and its unique self-managed socialism

Why Tito rejected Stalinist centralization and opted for a more decentralized Leninist-inspired model

How Yugoslavia differed from the Eastern Bloc and charted a non-aligned, independent path

The role of international financial institutions in eroding Yugoslavia’s economic stability

What lessons does Yugoslavia offer for a post-capitalist or post-socialist future

Is there a crisis in US-Israel relations—or a deeper shift in global Middle East policy? In this wide-ranging discussion, we speak with veteran Middle East analyst Mouin Rabbani about Donald Trump’s recent visit to the region, the fallout from the firing of Mike Waltz, and whether Washington and Tel Aviv are heading toward a rupture.

Key questions we explore:

🔹 Is US policy in the Middle East changing, or is this just more Trump unpredictability?

🔹 Who really calls the shots—Israel or the United States?

🔹 Do Arab states have any real leverage over Israel, especially regarding the ongoing Palestinian struggle?

🔹 What’s driving the recent European backlash to Israel’s Gaza invasion?

🔹 Is Israel entering a period of internal political crisis, with growing opposition to the war?
