Avoid shallow hot takes, and look at the deep causes of the Korea Crisis with KJ Noh on the Burning Archive.

At jeffrich.substack.com/ I have just completed my reading guide to the history of the post-1945 world.
It will give you the short-cuts to the best historical literature and primary sources on how the world shaped the world after 1945, not just the USA and its rules.

Earlier this year I had an insightful conversation with Sam Roggeveen of @LowyInstitute about how diplomacy and defence (not offence) can prevent a US-China war. *** Watch it now 👇
