/252/ Technopopulism & Toxic Politics ft. Carlo Invernizzi Accetti
🕑 Added 2022-04-05 06:01:01 +0000 UTCOn the fusion of technocracy & populism.
Carlo Invernizzi Accetti talks to us about his book, Technopopulism, co-authored with Chris Bickerton. This is the "new logic of democratic politics". How are all politicians today effectively technocratic and populist at the same time? How does this distinguish our age from a more ideological age in the past? And what can be done to make politics ideological again?
Readings:
- The Age of Technopopulism? George Hoare, Damage
- Alex's thread on consensus-through-dissensus
- The Berlusconi - cocktail recipe
