I chat with Aaron Sibarium about our post-liberal moment.
About how we can’t make sense of history and politics without understanding technology.
The challenges of Online Localism vs Real Life Localism
Is our future in competitive city-states?
Identity and signaling in the “Marketplace of Ideas”
The self-fulfilling prophecy of diversity programs
The marriage of meritocracy & wokeism
Aaron’s recommended subversive thinkers are:
Derek Parfit - On the liberal concept of personal identity and the self and population ethics - “The Repugnant Conclusion”
G.A. Cohen - On the liberal/libertarian idea that we can draw distinctions between corporate and state powers and a critique of libertarianism from the left.
“Albion’s Seed” - David Hackett Fisher - Subverts the idea that the U.S. is a purely credal nation and the idea of universalism.
“Collision Course: The Strange Convergence of Affirmative Action and Immigration Policy in America” - Hugh Davis Graham
Aaron Sibarium is a writer for the Washington Free Beacon. He graduated from Yale University, where he was the opinion editor of the Yale Daily News. Before joining the Free Beacon, he was an editor at The American Interest.
