Edmund Fawcett

Edmund Fawcett, a former Economist correspondent and author, delves into the dynamics between liberalism and conservatism, arguing that Trump’s MAGA movement represents a third way rooted in American populism. He discusses the impact of economic inequality on Trumpism and critiques the left's stagnant identity politics. Fawcett emphasizes the need for liberals to craft a compelling counter-narrative, suggesting that a renaissance of ideas is essential to navigate modernity's challenges and reconnect with the disillusioned middle class.
