Description
El Salvador is a fascinating country. Its dynamic and somewhat scary president, Nayib Bukele, sits at the center of two of the world's most important questions: crime and cryptocurrency. In this podcast we
explore the country's vibrant history, touching on tumultuous events that have shaped it over the past 100 years but focusing on the past 30 years and the past 4 years in particular.
Rob & Ruairi dive into Bukele's meteoric rise to power and his unique approach to governance since taking office as President in 2019. We cover the Bukele initiatives that have garnered international attention and sparked both praise
and controversy.
So is Nayib Bukele a dictator? Does his authoritarian approach to crime have implications for Central America more broadly, and even the United States? And what is up with Bukele's whole Bitcoin thing? Join us in this episode as we dive into these questions, among many others.
