What is Russia’s influence in the West? What is Soft Power? Is liberal democracy the thing everybody wants?

Our guest this week, Vincent Keating will be addressing these questions as well as talking about his own career path.

His research topics include: The politics of human rights during the war on terror; How issues of trust and distrust shape alliance politics; The problems of trustworthiness and legitimacy facing non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and Russian influence and attraction, particularly through the lens of conservative soft power. His twitter handle is @vckeating
