<p><strong>What happens to global security when the person in charge stops showing up? </strong></p><br><p>For eighty years, the world relied on one assumption: that the United States would act as the central guarantor of trade and defence. This podcast tracks the moment that assumption failed.</p><br><p>Through the lens of <strong>Scenario G</strong>—a real-world contingency framework—we examine a decade of institutional adaptation. From the collapse of the Atlantic alliance to the rise of the Sovereign Security Covenant, we explore how mid-tier powers like the UK, France, and Japan managed to stabilize a world without a hegemon. No drama, no villains—just the cold logic of survival.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
