S1E8 - Capacities Part 2

This is the second part of our discussion with Dr JC Gaillard about capacities. Please listen to the previous Episode (S1E7) first if you haven't yet!

Today we dig deeper into the role of power in determining responsibility for vulnerability reduction or capacity enhancement. What about cultural contexts where we are outsiders? Can we presume to be acting ethically? 

Also, Jason has some spare time to monologue ;)
