The Collapse of Global Liberalism: And the Emergence of the Post Liberal World Order (Philip Pilkington)

In a gripping analysis, the podcast delves into the demise of Enlightenment liberalism and its implications for our world. The hosts argue that liberalism's quest to erase hierarchies has paradoxically produced new ones. They dissect the historical lineage from Locke to Marx, highlight the failures unveiled by the Russo-Ukraine war, and critique the unrealistic worship of GDP. The vision of a post-liberal future emphasizes family, higher birthrates, and a multipolar economic framework, raising questions about how societies might adapt to this new order.
