Is the Ukraine War the start of World War Three? Has World War 3 already begun. How do we make sense of the war in Ukraine in a big-picture historical perspective?

There have been many news stories, many podcasts and many channels looking at the unfolding events in Ukraine from day to day. In this series, however, Jeff Rich steps back from the daily news cycle, and sets out common historical narratives about the war in Ukraine. In this podcast Jeff Rich sets out five alternative histories of the war, that reframing how the conflict is part of a global conflict between great states.

By telling the story of this war differently to conventional accounts repeated in the mainstream media, we all might find our way back to the path of diplomacy and dialogue, before it is too late.
