    • Binoy Kampmark
    • 02 April 2025

    No one can predict President Trump’s next move on the global stage.

    • Andrew Hamilton
    • 06 February 2025

    Donald Trump’s presidency, often dismissed as chaotic, follows a clear, transactional logic: power over principle, loyalty over institutions, and reshaping America into a high-stakes deal-making enterprise. But history suggests such a system cannot last. In the meantime, how should we respond?

    • Dotan Rousso
    • 31 October 2024
