Episode notes

Inversion of what the traditional model of neoliberal thought has been traditionally, from hya to buchanan onwards. What neo liberal, ne liberalism was about is the elites constraining the masses at some level. So this is a way to trace back people, even like pat buchanan and donald trump, into the history of new liberal thought. But rothbard did, and um, john gans has written about this really well.

Featuring Quinn Slobodian on his book Globalists: The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism. The story of neoliberalism’s Geneva School—including Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich Hayek, and Wilhelm Röpke—and their vision for a new global order to protect the market from democratic forces in the metropole and across the decolonizing world. An interview from archives first conducted in November 2018.
