“Vis a Vis” is a new podcast brought to you by the Alliance Program at Columbia University. Alliance is a partnership bringing together Columbia University and three leading French higher education institutions: Sciences Po, Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne and Ecole Polytechnique.
“Vis a Vis” features conversations that challenge our understanding of key global, economic and social issues by casting them in a transatlantic perspective.
We interrogate and contrast the views of American thinkers with their French and European counterparts, focusing on a range of issues of urgent concern, including climate change, migration, freedom of expression, cultural diversity, the politics of memory, social media regulation, participatory democracy, AI, and the future of work.
Join me as I sit down face to face with — or as we say in French, “vis a vis” — some of the most insightful and engaging thinkers on both sides of the Atlantic. Make sure to follow us wherever you get your podcasts.
