Understanding
Now.

We can no longer understand the world as we once thought we could. The categories we inherited have begun to give way. Left and right, democracy and authoritarianism, order and chaos no longer orient us. We are left with a kind of conceptual vertigo. Each week, I read across politics, policy, philosophy, history, and global affairs, and write in search of clarity. Not to resolve the confusion, but to think more carefully within it. Come, let us try to understand it together.
