Listen "History's Warning Signs: 4 Alarming Parallels to a New World War"

Episode Synopsis

In his recent TED talk, "Are We Heading Toward World War III?", geopolitical analyst Heni Ozi Cukier moves beyond simple historical comparisons. Instead, he presents a powerful framework for understanding our current moment by identifying troubling patterns that have preceded global conflicts in the past. The talk examines four key dimensions of life—social, economic, political, and military—and analyzes them across three critical periods: the years preceding World War I, the years preceding World War II, and the present day. By examining these dimensions in parallel, Cukier reveals a chilling convergence of trends that historically precede global catastrophe.
