After Order is a podcast from the Alameda Institute exploring what it means to live in a world defined by permanent crises. Host James Meadway sits down with leading thinkers from around the globe to explore the break down of stable systems, from politics to economics and technology. Who is in control? Who makes decisions on the big issues that affect people’s lives? And what new pathways, what new "Alamedas" are possible in our new world, after order?
