Who are the Experts? (with Vera Axyonova)

Host Adam Quinn sits down with the Experts expert Vera Axyonova to discuss think tanks in different conditions across the world. Not the sole preserve of liberal democracies, this episode delves into how some think tanks adapt under difficult, often dangerous circumstances where being an independent expert can put one at odds with those in power.

We discuss it all here.

Produced by Conor McKenna in association with the University of Birmingham.
