This episode we encounter an existential threat to the liberal individualism of our protagonists: The Borg. What makes them so terrifying? Communist-style collectivism, or the loss of individuality brought on by neoliberalism?

Join us for a discussion of International Relations, Star Trek, and the politics of the Cold War on the TV screen.

Hosts:

Dr. Faiz Sheikh
