FROM THE VAULT: GEORGE'S PICK (2)

On the unexpected origins of neoliberalism. We talk to Quinn Slobodian, author of Globalists, about how neoliberals look back to the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the League of Nations. Why does neoliberalism talk about freedom, but promote order? Is neoliberalism about more or less state - or is it about what kind of state?

Plus why the genuine neoliberals didn’t care about the Cold War and how Murray Rothbard laid the ground for Trump.

Readings:

Globalists, Quinn Slobodian
Neoliberalism’s World Order, Adam Tooze
Why I am not a conservative, F.A. von Hayek
The EU is a betrayal of Europe’s exceptionalism, Douglas Carswell
