Arnie is off for the week, so we’re revisiting some of our interviews from 2017. Today we go international, with a look back at our interviews with experts on China and North Korea.
Part One: Professor Jonathan Hassid of Iowa State U is an expert on China. He talks to us about how President Xi Jinping has cemented his grip on power by including his name and ideology in the Communist Party Constitution. Xi is now comparable in power to Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping.
Part Two: North Korea – what are we doing?
We speak with Mary McCarthy, Associate Professor of Political Science at Duke, who specializes in the politics and international relations of Japan, China, and East Asia.
