Podcast interview with former White House adviser: The world is not just turbulent - it faces a seismic shift

In this podcast, Insightview asks Mark Medish to help navigate a world of complexity not seen since the 1930s. Mark Medish is Vice Chair of Panterra, a London-headquartered strategic consultancy, and a former Special Assistant to President Clinton on the National Security Council.‌‌ ‌ ‌ Insightview asks Mark when he first sensed the world was entering something fundamentally new — not just turbulence, but a genuine systemic shift. We discuss whether the Trump doctrine of transactional bilateralism is sustainable, who is actually running US defence and foreign policy, and whether we are watching a temporary phenomenon or a permanent American reorientation.  ‌ ‌Insightviews asks Mark about China's 2030 plan, whether we are witnessing a technology war spiralling out of control, and how that differs from the Cold War. We also discuss Europe's political paralysis and whether artificial intelligence has shifted from a productivity opportunity to an existential risk. Are some large tech companies turning into "middle powers"? ‌ ‌Mark Medish brings a rare combination of perspectives to these questions — having sat at the intersection of US national security, international finance and multilateral diplomacy at moments of genuine historical consequence. ‌ Mark Medish is also a founding partner of the Mosaiq Law Group and a co-founder of Keep Our Republic, an educational non-profit promoting democratic governance and the rule of law. Previously, he served as US Treasury Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Affairs and worked at the State Department and the United Nations.‌‌ ‌‌ ‌‌‌Music: Melodyloops, 'Pure Calmness – by MediaM
