Radio: “The Axis of Resistance” – interview with Dr. Tim Anderson

Brendan Stone interviews Dr. Tim Anderson about his new book, The Axis of Resistance.

This is a thoughtful and in-depth interview at a time when many people are at home and open to digesting new ideas.

Description: [38 minutes]

Dr. Tim Anderson’s new book is as much about Empire as it is about Resistance. “The Axis of Resistance” details how U.S.-led imperialism uses sanctions, “humanitarian intervention” and juvenile propaganda in order to undermine the rights and protections under international law of Global South states.

It’s also, naturally, a treatment of the elements that constitute resistance to U.S. power in West Asia (the “Middle East”). Anderson discusses why regional integration is essential to resisting an external hegemon, and his book explores the origins and connections between Hezbollah, the Islamic Republic, and the Syrian Arab Republic. “Axis of Resistance” is a must-read for those seeking to understand the past 20+ years of U.S. war on the “Middle East,” and why the empire is falling apart.
