Description

There was a time in American history when everything was about ships. For centuries, power on the seas was necessary for economic success, but U.S. maritime power isn’t what it used to be. That change has never been more important than in the growing territorial tension in the Arctic Circle. Author, columnist, and economic analyst Rana Foroohar joins host Zachary Karabell to talk about her new book Sea Change: America’s New Great Game in the Arctic. They discuss how sea lanes opening across the North Pole as a result of climate change could reshape trade, security, and geopolitics, and make the Arctic one of the most important economic and political zones in the world. What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and Kaleidoscope.
