In his new book, Regime Change: Toward a Postliberal Future, renowned political philosopher Patrick Deneen argues that the liberal ideology that has shaped capitalism for centuries has also failed to deliver on its promises of freedom, equality, and prosperity. Is he able to offer a compelling alternative that serves the interests of the common good over those of wealthy elites?

Deneen, whose previous book "Why Liberalism Failed" was acclaimed by the likes of former U.S. President Obama, joins Bethany and Luigi to discuss his proposed 'Regime Change' and its implications for capitalism and the market economy. Can his vision of a postliberal future offer a more just and sustainable economic system, one that addresses the pressing challenges of our time? Can we have progress without progressivism?

Obwohl es in der Literatur einen weitgehenden Konsens zum Zusammenhang zwischen Krieg und der Entstehung des modernen Steuerstaates gibt, besteht in viele Punkten Unklarheit, wie und unter welchen Umständen Kriege die Besteuerung langfristig beeinflussen. Im Folgenden skizzieren wir diese offenen Fragen und verweisen auf eine Reihe von Themenfeldern, in denen Forschungsbedarf besteht.

The Republican pollster argues that the "working class is concentrated in states that are more electorally significant to the outcome of the election."

Ist der Aufstieg euroskeptischer und extremistischer Parteien eine Folge der Mobilisierung einstmaliger Nichtwähler? Eine Analyse der Wahlen zum Europäischen Parlament (EP) der Jahre 2009 und 2014 legt nahe, dass die Unterstützung für euroskeptische Parteien von Veränderungen der Wahlbeteili-gung weitgehend unberührt bleiben würde, schreiben Uwe Remer-Bollow, Patrick Bernhagen und Richard Rose. Extremistische Parteien hätten sogar Stimmenanteile verloren, wenn die Wahlbeteiligung bei den Wahlen zum Europäischen Parlament auf dem Niveau nationaler Hauptwahlen gelegen hätte. ...

The Great Lakes account for "over 20% of the world's freshwater and over 80% of North America's freshwater."

A just-good-enough remake fails to live up to its predecessor.

The episode features a roundtable on Philip Cunliffe's latest book, The New Twenty Years' Crisis (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2020). And, in a bit of a break with tradition, this episode also sees me jump out of the host's seat, and invite Shahar Hameiri (University of Queensland) to take over the reins.



Joining me in the panel to discuss the book is the author, Philip Cunliffe (making his third appearance on the show), and Patrick Porter (University of Birmingham). Tara McCormack (University of Leicester) was also scheduled to join us but had to withdraw at the last minute, due to illness.



It was great to have Phil back on the show, to discuss this important book. The last time he was on, we talked about his previous book, Cosmopolitan Dystopia, which was a survey of human rights discourse on global politics since the end of the Cold War. The new book takes the theme of liberal war-making from that book, and attempts to read it through the lens of E. H. Carr's classic 1939 text, The Twenty Years' Crisis.



On the eve of World War Two, Carr described the politics of his time as a kind of interregnum, or a time of passage between two regimes of world order. For Carr, the great tragedy of his time was that the normative commitments of the intellectuals of interbellum period — namely, to the power of public opinion, to sovereign self-determination, and to international law and institutions — were incongruent with the kinds of mass-mobilized politics that were rapidly sweeping away their world order, and undermining the very conditions of possibility for securing those commitments.



For Cunliffe, however, the lessons of Carr's study of the 1919-1939 period must today be applied in a kind of inverted manner. For where it was mass politics that ultimately frustrated and undid the political project of the utopian idealists, we do not today live in such a massified moment. To the contrary, as scholars like Peter Mair have described, we live in a demassified moment, where the agendas of college-educated neoliberal Brahmins dominate, unchecked. Worse, as Cunliffe explores, these new elites are kind of anti-utopians. They detest the values of the interbellum period, deriding public opinion and breaching sovereign self-determination in the name of so-called responsibility.



Cunliffe explores this argument through a number of fascinating case studies, taking us from the salons of International Relations conventions, which have been overtaken by 'critical' theorists (a group of scholars whose methods are singularly symptomatic of the "imaginary" of our unipolar moment), to the hallways of Brussels, capital of that grandest of examples of "de-massified," neoliberal democracy, the European Union. The overarching theme that emerges is one of a shocking lack of self-awareness on the part of our political and intellectual elites.



As you'll hear, the panelists are on the whole friendly to Phil's diagnosis, but they do push back on some of his normative suggestions. Despite these disagreements, however, I will say that I think this is one of the more important episodes we've done on this show. Diagnostically, Phil is one of the sharpest commentators around, on the contradictions of our postmodern moment. I want to thank Phil, Patrick, and Shahar for their time and effort in helping to make this conversation happen.

Die erste Nationale Sicherheitsstrategie für Deutschland ruht auf drei Säulen. Wehrhaft, resilient und nachhaltig soll Sicherheit zukünftig gestaltet sein. In diesem Blog diskutieren wir die Verknüpfung der wehrhaften und der nachhaltigen Sicherheit und zeigen dabei eine bedeutende Lücke auf. Ausgerechnet bei der so wichtigen Verknüpfung von Klimaveränderung und Sicherheit findet sich kein Hinweis darauf, dass auch die Ausstattung und Infrastruktur der Bundeswehr und ihre Einsatzpläne dem Ziel der Nachhaltigkeit entsprechen sollten. Ein Ansatz der integrierten Sicherheit sollte diese Dimension der nachhaltigen Wehrhaftigkeit aber unbedingt einschließen. Entsprechend empfehlen wir der Bundeswehr, nun eine eigene Strategie zur Klimasicherheit zu erarbeiten.
