Today, eight of the world's most populous countries, or about 4 billion people, are led by politicians 70 years of age, or older. "Wall Street Journal" reporter Jon Emont joins "Doorstep" co-hosts Nick Gvosdev and Tatiana Serafin to discuss the systems and structures that keep aging leaders in power in both autocracies and democracies.
What do we lose when generational change is stifled? Can the world effectively address 21st century crises from pandemics, to melting ice caps, to technological advances with 20th century frameworks? Are we reaching a tipping point?

One of the core ethical and legal imperatives in warfare is the protection of civilians. With the vast majority of armed conflicts in the world today occurring between state and non-state actors, this has led to ambiguity around traditional battlefield lines, what laws apply, and who is viewed as liable to harm.
This virtual panel explored emerging ethical and legal questions surrounding the humanization of warfare, touching on issues of international law, just war, and how civilian protection can hinge on how we label a conflict. The event builds upon an essay published by Georgetown Law’s Professor Mitt Regan, who moderated the discussion, in the most recent issue of Ethics & International Affairs, the quarterly journal of Carnegie Council.

In this probing discussion with Senior Fellow Arthur Holland Michel, Brianna Rosen, senior fellow at "Just Security" and the University of Oxford, discusses what we know (and what we don't) about Israel's use of AI in the war in Gaza and explains the fraught relationship between algorithmic decisions, transparency, and accountability. She also looks back at the last two decades of the U.S. drone strike program for clues about what the future of AI warfare might mean for justice and human rights.
