Empire is a one-hour program on Al Jazeera English which examines global powers and their agendas. The show is hosted by Marwan Bishara.
Empire on Al Jazeera English, consistently challenges concepts about global powers and global elites. Through Empire episodes such as "The US between Two Wars", "SuperClass", "BRIC: The New World Order", or "US & Iran: Best of Enemies?", Marwan Bishara has posed pertinent questions on a vast range of topics. Empire has been successful at dissecting the most significant geo-political issues of the day by fusing the best Al Jazeera field reporting with an in-depth studio debate with the participation of leading analysts and commentators.
In later episodes, the debates sometimes take place in the location in question. The show breaks down said countries' policies with the people who live in them and examines whether those policies work and who benefits.
