Join MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough with the Financial Times’ Edward Luce for a conversation about Zbigniew Brzezinski, a key architect of the Soviet Union’s demise, modern US foreign policy, and Mika’s father — and Luce’s New York Times-bestselling biography, Zbig: The Life of Zbigniew Brzezinski.
Our geopolitical moment was shaped by Zbigniew Brzezinski. National Security Advisor to President Carter, Brzezinski grew up in Warsaw and turned his fierce resentment at his homeland’s razing by Nazi Germany into a lifelong quest for liberty. Looking through the prism of his policy, conflicts in the Middle East, Ukraine, and elsewhere take on new dimension and scope. Born the year that Joseph Stalin consolidated power and dying a few months into Donald Trump’s first term, Brzezinski helped shape global power struggles from the postwar 20th century to today. But his historic role has been greatly underweighted — until now. Expertly researched, Luce’s Zbig puts Brzezinski’s life into an almost cinematic arc — a grand narrative of the American century.
In a special conversation, hear Luce talk to Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough about what Zbigniew Brzezinski’s policy can teach us about the balance of power across the world, today — shedding new light on how his thinking continues to ripple through today’s headlines and our geopolitical reality.
