On this episode of New Order, we speak to former economic hitman John Perkins, author of ‘Confessions of an Economic Hit Man’ and ‘Art of the Steal: Trump and the Economic Hit Man Presidency’. He discusses how Donald Trump laid the ‘economic hitman’ system out in the open with his brazen corruption, how Trump has become the ‘jackal’ with his kidnapping of Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela and the disaster that has been his war on Iran, how Prime Minister Narendra Modi views India’s position in the multipolar world, the ‘four pillars’ of Trump’s economic hitman presidency and how India has avoided the debt pillar, how US mistakes around the world have fueled the rise of the power of China globally, why de-dollarization is inevitable as US hegemonic power wanes and the threat of increased violence from the US empire, and much more.

New Order with Afshin Rattansi will trace how India and its allies sit at the center of a transformation in world history. Power is moving, alliances are shifting, and the rules of trade, technology, and security are being rewritten. New Order is about diplomatic architecture: The networks of power, the flow of money, and the levers of influence that determine who gains and who loses in a world of tectonic transition.
