Recorded on November 1st, 2022
Can China’s current authoritarian model hold without destroying its economy, and what’s the near-term outlook for the war in Ukraine? Stephen Kotkin, the Hoover Institution’s Kleinheinz Senior Fellow and an authority on geopolitics and authoritarian regimes (and a Joe Pesci soundalike) joins Hoover senior fellows Niall Ferguson, H. R. McMaster, and John Cochrane to discuss the latest in Xi Jinping’s China and Vladimir Putin’s Russia.
ABOUT THE SERIES
GoodFellows, a weekly Hoover Institution broadcast, features senior fellows John Cochrane, Niall Ferguson, and H.R. McMaster discussing the social, economic, and geostrategic ramifications of this changed world. They can’t banter over lunch these days, but they continue their spirited conversation online about what comes next, as we look forward to an end to the crisis.

Stephen was almost enjoying himself too much, with those friendly jibes. But everyone else had the benefit and was just enjoying being on the same stage. Thank you gentlemen that was as enjoyable as it was informative, not withstanding the most grave and tragic subject. May true wisdom prevail and a lasting peace come quickly.

Such fantastic discussions and information. Thank you! I’m just a retired airfreight pilot and merchant marine engineer who loves to read history and geopolitics. I went to Nanjing, China as a cadet engineer in 1982, then flew a great deal into Hong Kong, Shanghai,Tsingtao and Guangzhou 1999-2020. Saw a lot of changes. I was greatly disturbed by trade imbalances and I.P. theft for many years.

It's nice to have people who can talk about these serious topics but can keep it light-hearted. It can be easy to get frustrated or despairing when looking at the problems in the world. We need to remember to not take everything too seriously and allow room for humor. Humor can solve some of the problems on its own.

So nice to see face to face discourse. I never realized how important that was until the COVID Zoom era. If this conversation was held on Zoom it would have had half the information and twice the talk over/awkward pauses. We humans definitely need to see each other's facial and body cues real time to efficiently converse.
