Share your thoughts on this series by filling out our listener survey. We are at a critical crossroads. A global wave of far-right authoritarianism is threatening human rights, climate action and democracy – steering the world toward disaster. From Donald Trump in the White House to Javier Milei in Argentina, ideologies that were once confined to the fringes are now dictating the agenda from inside the halls of power. What are the roots of the right’s rise? What networks enable it? What are social movements around the world doing to offer real alternatives to the politics of hate and division? In September, we hosted a special Ask Us Anything event with contributors to our magazine to answer these questions and many more. This episode is an edited version of that discussion. Host: Maxine Betteridge-Moes Credits: Maxine Betteridge-Moes (Digital Editor, Producer), Amy Hall, Bethany Rielly, Conrad Landin, Nick Dowson (Co-Editors), Paula Lacey (Editorial Assistant), Samuel Rafanell-Williams (Sound Design), Nazik Hamza (Audio Editor), Mari Fouz (Logo Design) Guests: Kim Kelly, Josefina Salomon, Balasz Turcsan Further reading from this episode: Read NI557: The Global Far Right A time of monsters (Bethany Rielly, New Internationalist) Shop Fair Trade at New Internationalist’s very own Ethical Shop, using the discount code ETHICAL for 10% off your order No billionaires.
