Dimes and Judas use the recent election of China’s Olivia Chow to Mayor of Toronto as a launch point to discuss the landmark text of geopolitical realist theory “Politics Among Nations” by Hans J. Morgenthau. They explore the ideology of the status quo, the true meaning of imperialism, and the essence of naked self-interest through the pursuit of power.
