This chapter delves into recent political events in several countries including France, the US, and the UK, featuring discussions on key figures like Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Renowned historian Sir Neil Ferguson offers insights into the current political landscape and draws comparisons between the US and the late Soviet Union.
