On the disaster of the culture wars.
[Patreon Exclusive]
Regular contributor Catherine Liu is back on to talk about her essay in Damage, issue 2, "Professional Populists in the Culture Wars". We discuss:
What were the original 'culture wars' and how are they different to today?
Why are the "academic populists" more elitist than anyone?
Was there a need in the 1980s to "disrupt" the humanities?
Why does conservatism now need to wear "populist" clothes?
How should we defend the "canon"?
What is the "Catherine Liu Foundation for Attacking Badness"?
