Is a new Non-Aligned Movement emerging to counter the United States (and is it trying to counter the US)? What was the original Non-Aligned Movement during the Cold War? What was the New International Economic Order, and why did it disappear? What prospects are there for a global order in a post-hegemon, post-American, multipolar world? And what does the US Democratic Party have to do with all these questions? Dr. Nils Gilman joins Dr. Van Jackson on The Un-Diplomatic Podcast tackle all those questions by discussing Gilman's new essay in Dissent Magazine called "A New Non-Aligned Movement?"
