    Aug 11 2024
    In the seventh episode of EDUCIDE, hosted by Mike Cunningham, the focus is on the concept of 'lawfare'— the strategic utilization of legal systems to achieve military or political objectives, explored through the lens of events surrounding the forced landing of a Ryanair Flight orchestrated by Belarus to arrest a dissident journalist on board. Cunningham elaborates on the intricate use of global legal mechanisms and international regulations in place, with a focus on the subsequent indictment of key Belarusian officials and the swift international response that ensued. The host also delves into the legal complexities of the U.S. charges made in the context of international jurisdiction and the potential bias of an immediate response without a thorough investigation. Cunningham rounds off the conversation by highlighting the importance of critical thinking skills when interpreting such complex global affairs.

  • Episode Six: Armenia, Artsakh, and the Truth
    Aug 10 2024
    In this episode of EDUCIDE, Mike Cunningham explores the concept of 'educide'—the rewriting or genocide of history or education itself—with a deep dive into post-World War I Turkey. The episode revolves around the Treaty of Sèvres and its replacement by the Treaty of Lausanne, focusing how the turbulent historical, legal, and political conditions drove this transformative event. A significant person dissected in this journey is Mustafa Kemal Atatürk—his vehement opposition to the Treaty of Sèvres, establishment of a counter movement, and eventual victory in remapping the narrative and identity of a nation. Mike also studies how the signing and ratification of international treaties influence the fate of such agreements, covering the roles of domestic and international influences, with particular focus on Soviet Russia's support to Atatürk's nationalist movement. The episode highlights the remarkable capacity of leaders, external alliances, and strategic narrative control in crafting a nation's future.
