Video Title: Weimar Forever: How the World of Today Resembles the Weimar Republic. Source: Foreign Policy Research Institute. Date Published: January 4, 2022. Description:
In this special hybrid event, FPRI’s Robert Strausz-Hupé Chair in Geopolitics, Robert D. Kaplan, discusses how the world of today resembles the Weimar Republic, the German government from 1919 until 1933 that faced hyperinflation, political division, and other issues.
Quote: "My point today is that the world is quickly becoming one system. Not one government, not universal governance, but a system, an identifiable system. And because it's a system that encompasses the whole planet we're always in a crisis. So it's sort of like a permanent crisis." - Robert D. Kaplan.
