Ep 173 One World in a New World with Aslam Kakar

How do experiences of conflict, curiosity, and intellectual exploration shape one’s understanding of identity and interconnectedness in a global context?

Step into an insightful conversation between Zen Benefiel and Dr. Aslam Kakar, a renowned scholar in Global Affairs, political science, sociology, and anthropology. In this episode, they delve into the complexities of ethnopolitical conflicts, social movements, and the deeply connected human experience. Dr. Kakar, with his expertise in the histories of the Pashtun people of Pakistan and the Kurds of Turkey, offers a culturally rich perspective on how these communities navigate conflict, identity, and the global stage.

Zen and Aslam engage in a dialogue that encourages you to reflect on the deeper connections that bind humanity. How do personal experiences influence our understanding of unity? What can we learn from communities facing struggle, displacement, and efforts at cultural preservation? Together, they explore not only the geopolitical dynamics but also the spiritual and emotional dimensions driving movements toward collective harmony.

Whether you’re interested in the sociology of conflict, passionate about social justice, or curious about how diverse cultural stories intertwine with the global human journey, this conversation is filled with meaningful insights. Zen and Aslam unpack how personal and collective histories intersect, inspiring hope for a future grounded in unity, understanding, and peace.

This episode offers a compelling blend of academic insight, spiritual reflection, and shared human experience. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore what it truly means to bridge the gaps—internally and externally—that separate us, and move toward a world built on shared understanding and global harmony.
