The best Farid Zakaria interview on the topic of Age of Revolutions, thanks to David Brooks.

As the world chages, I really appreciate this kind of conversation. Thanks 😊

As an atheist, I still like the idea of churches as places of community, contemplation, reverence, affirmation of shared values, etc. Why can't we have a secular version of that without all the sectarian dogma and supernatural bullshit?

We do. They are called rock concerts. Well, not so much on the contemplation unless you're at a Jackson Browne or James Taylor concert, but everything else that you listed is there.

Fareed Zakaria is always carrying water for the Ruling Class

I could listen to these two the whole day.

There is nothing more stimulating (at my age) than to listen to two thoughtful and brilliant scholars.

Always amazing listen those two Gentlemen

Loved this, thank you!

I live very well under the poverty line, with my wife and two kids. But i see many people collapsing under the freedom, anomie and purposelessness of our society, when money and followers are the only remaining gods, and unlike the trancendental gods, they do not love everyone equally...

15:18 Colombia was not run by a military junta in 1985, dear Fareed who I admire very much.

I love this guy.

Mr. Brooks is greatly respected! Very observant, logical and reasonable.

Fareed Zakaria's intellect is a national treasure

Clever chap

This was a good interview( Thanks to David)

I watched GPS for 12 years. But now i am living in India and I mess up the time

F Z is right & most immigrants hav the same feeling about America , who make it, 'who are successful' but then there r others who'r , lets say 'let down' America is hard , its not for all including the ones who hav lived here for generations & feel let down , its very hard for them to fathom history , statistics , they look around & blame the system , there is a reason why every great nation goes down , lets hope the history does not repeat itself, for many more centuries to come .

Spectacular conversation!!!

The problem is the “average” citizen of each nation losses out while the exceptional citizen thrives under the globalized system. The “Everyman” backlash has long been building. The response to those needs will rule the next generation.

The funny part is that the “average” citizen consistently turn to Fascism

Gov. Wes Moore! MD Service Corps

Listen to Fareed Zakaria, with a healthy dose of skeptisim

Farid, American experiment being for how many citizens? 300 million and some? Can other nations with larger population experiment?

then rebuild with some equality, then inequality grow again, collapse again, rebuild again, cycle continues until people figure out how to bring equality without collapsing the civilization.

Ah, after WWII the Dutch, the French, and the English continued their colonial ways attempting to reconquer, establish colonies in Indochina, Vietnam, Algeria, and Egypt. Locals, (and the US) put an end to their nonsense. Artfully through the Suez Crisis (threat to call Britain's war debt), and the US's own debacle in Vietnam. The post-WWII Europeans remain too insular, anti-immigrant, and close-minded (especially the Brits).

I think that the untrammelled greed of untrammelled Capitalism has contributed largely to this dissatisfaction with democracy. For that I blame American.

Nonsense, CA is revolutionizing to world with the 4th Industrial Revolution - digitization: the latest, AI with OpenAI and Nvidia. Wake up, old thinkers!

Coal, oil and gas led to the modern economic miracle. One barrel of oil is equal to 4+ years of manual labor, plus 4000 useful byproducts. The enlightenment and democracies set the stage for innovation. Energy powered it. Money is a claim on future energy resources.

Wrong! Denmark was the first SP. Wrong again! Rome was not the only system of its kind. Rome, Persia, China. It IS a collection of fairy tales. That's all I seen when I was 3 or 4. I wasn't religious until I became a Mormon at 19. Religious thoughts, primarily Christianity & New Age Theory FKD me up GOOD.

Jeez. Talk about a couple of guys who’re full of it and should’ve retired years ago. David, Fareed, retire. You’ve both done more than enough damage.

Meh, it was okay.

I find Hindu rate of growth comment to be offensive. Why blame a religion for socialist policy?

History it's not how you thinks..Zakaria. But how it's written by the blood of millions people including yours ..England has play the most negative role in history..it's nothing to admire....even to day it's the one most corruption countries in world ..if you think your patriot Sunnni ( this is the name) pm ?

Then India has a great strategy ypouli *for dominated accept China 🇨🇳 which never can win.in all aspects of cultural old and new..America have the best way to give a chance every tipotenio..and makes them star or president...it's a reason will not learn from true science people with out fake stars..
