Episode notes
What were the historical, political, cultural conditions for Brexit?
Jeremy discusses the first section of The Battle For Britain: Crises, Conflicts and the Conjuncture with author John Clarke. We talk about the background to the book, the introduction and the first two chapters, covering the different ways that our present moment in Britain can be understood, spatially and temporally.
The conversation will continue in a series of seminars on the book which will be recorded and podcast.
