This podcast entitled "Populism In General and PH Foreign Policy" takes a conversational-like approach in discussing the globalizing phenomenon of Populism and how it is starting to change the foreign policy landscape. Particulary, it also looks into the PH's populist- Duterte and evaluates the plausibility of populism as the future of FP.

This podcast revolves around the topic, Duterte’s leadership style and foreign policy decision-making. The content is divided into two main parts: The first part discusses the main points of our paper and the second part is a commentary of the speakers on one of the main arguments of the study that is, “A personal and provocative take on a state’s foreign policy exposes risks more than opportunities. In the case of the Philippines, the long-standing alliances of the country with other states are severely threatened by President Duterte’s personalistic policymaking. Consequently, the abrupt and often unpredictable changes in foreign relation landscape initiated by the Philippine President positions the country in uncertainty”.

Since this mainly emphasizes the dangers of President Duterte’s unconventional leadership style and foreign policymaking, what the speakers will specifically do is share what they think is the silver lining or the positive sides of Duterte’s populist approach to leadership. This is an aspect that we consider as the ‘Other Side’ of him that was not extensively explored and discussed in the paper.

The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed in the podcast belong solely to the speakers and do not necessarily reflect those of their professors or their university.
