The age of resilience

This podcast starts with the fundamental shift in global dynamics where modern warfare has transitioned from decisive victories to grueling attrition based on industrial and societal endurance.

Then it explains how the post-1945 international order has collapsed, replaced by a tripolar world dominated by the informal spheres of influence of the United States, Russia, and China.

Within this landscape, traditional European defense projects are criticized as being too centralized and slow to address the realities of decentralized, high-tech conflict.

The collection proposes a new model of European resilience centered on core nations like France, Italy, and Poland that prioritize moral and industrial readiness over bureaucratic integration.

Ultimately, in the twenty-first century, survival may depend more on a society’s internal will to persist rather than its raw military power.
