The Dismantling of U.S. Foreign Aid: American Retreat and Chinese Expansion

In this episode with Professor Jane Zimmerman, we examine the dismantling of America’s foreign assistance system and what it means for American diplomacy and global development. Discussing the many roles foreign aid has historically played, ranging from advancing humanitarian goals to strengthening U.S. national security, we explore what the United States has lost by scaling back its aid programs and development institutions. We also consider how this shift has reshaped global competition with China, whose development financing and infrastructure projects are increasingly shaping relationships across the Global South. Looking ahead, we discuss what the future of foreign assistance might look like and how the United States could rebuild or rethink its approach to development. — Special Guest: Jane Zimmerman Executive Producer: Andrew Chand Correspondents: Elizabeth Reid and Ricardo Bruinton

The Gutting of the State Department: Lessons from an Ambassador

In this episode with Ambassador David Young, we examine the recent gutting of the U.S. State Department. Discussing the Trump administration’s efforts to cut staffing, funding, and foreign assistance programs as part of a broader restructuring of the federal government, we explore how these changes have affected both American diplomacy and the individuals who carry it out. Alongside this policy discussion, Ambassador Young reflects on his own career in diplomacy, offering insights into the practice of international relations and the paths that lead people into public service. — Special Guest: Ambassador David Young Executive Producer: Andrew Chand Correspondents: Anika Shah, Abby Burritt, and Ellie Grace Robinson
