Paul Sagar

Dr. Paul Sagar, a Reader in Political Theory at King's College London, shares his insights on philosophy and political equality, shaped by his experience with tetraplegia after a climbing accident. He delves into the often-misunderstood works of Adam Smith, advocating for a nuanced interpretation. The discussion touches on the complex interplay of hope and acceptance following tragedy and the importance of personal choice in life and death matters. Sagar also examines the challenges of democracy in increasingly tribal societies, calling for greater inclusivity and understanding.
