About «Living Fire»

Living Fire is an independent analytical publication about the trends shaping the world. We do not retell the news. We show the connections: the undercurrents of global economy and politics that are invisible in a quick scan of headlines.

Our idea

Conventional news reports events. We look deeper to understand trends and to reframe what is happening beyond the mainstream narrative. Our focus is the political and economic processes that shape the future.

World · Power · Meaning

• World — economy, geo-economics, geopolitics, energy, corridors and resources.
• Power — the state, elites, strategy, institutions and mechanisms of influence.
• Meaning — history, philosophy, civilizations and the people who understood their world.

Topics

• History

What we publish

Serious analysis, geopolitics and economy, history and civilizations, philosophy, quotations of thinkers, books, maps and data. Every item cites its source and date.

What we do not publish

Greetings and organisational notes, entertainment and clickbait, esotericism, astrology and conspiracy theories. We keep a high bar of quality and respect for the reader.
