In this episode of 1Dime Radio, Matt McManus joins me to discuss his new book, The Political Theory of Liberal Socialism, which goes over the lost radical history of liberalism and what socialists can learn from liberalism.

In The Backroom episode on Patreon titled “Democratic Socialism or Liberal Communism,” we discuss the obstacles to transition to socialism, critiques of Liberal Socialism, and the notion of “socialist managed democracy.”  Become a Patron at Patreon.com/OneDime if you haven’t already!
