摘要
Friday Focus provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates.
The following is a sample of the Munk Debates’ weekly current affairs podcast, Friday Focus.
On this edition of the Friday Focus podcast, Janice and Rudyard start the show with a discussion of the week’s remarkable events in Israel. After months of protests, the government of Benjamin Netanyahu passed the first in a series of sweeping “judicial reform” laws aimed at curbing the power of Israel’s supreme court. Is this the beginning of the end of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state? On the back half of the program, Janice shares her suggestion for a great summer read in the form of the new book Radical Uncertainty: Decision Making Beyond Numbers. Enjoy!
