This program provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving 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.

This week’s Munk Members podcast explores the issues and ideas raised in Janice Stein’s important article this week in Foreign Policy magazine. To access the article in full click here. Rudyard and Janice discuss different approaches to deterrence in the current war, how they are likely to encourage divergent risks and outcomes and the importance of considering psychological factors when trying to predict and ideally change Putin’s behavior. The episode also digs into the risks and reasons to be cautious about transferring NATO fighter jets to Ukraine and setting up “no-fly” zones.
