Rune Møller Stahl joins us for the B-Side to address whether or not claims to neoliberalism's power have been overstated. Are we all neoliberal subjects now? Or can we say: neoliberalism, neoshmiberalism?

Tune in to find out.

Joining us this week to talk about the morbid symptoms of the post-neoliberal interregnum is Rune Møller Stahl, post-doc at the University of Copenhagen. We discuss his new paper wherein he argues that we are in the midst of a Gramscian "interregnum," or a highly volatile transitional period between global orders. This interpretation has tremendous consequences for the socialist left.

Nick Kiersey returns for the B-Side to chat about the good, the bad, and ugly from the recent DSA convention, and about how we might transcend the culture wars around these topics by adopting a "pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will."

Adam gets a little heated, Nick's sweet Irish nature calms him down, and then they discuss how Mark Fisher might have addressed these debates (the answer may surprise you).

Is everything neoliberal these days? Joining us to discuss the meaning and impact of neoliberalism in 2019 is Nick Kiersey, professor of political science at the University of Texas-Rio Grande. We discuss the controversial legacy and Foucault and what his insights might add to a discussion of the political-economic dimensions of neoliberalism and late capitalism.

Our recent series of public ownership begs an answer to the following question: if we seek to build a post-neoliberal society, what signposts might an analysis of contemporary neoliberalism provide in that effort? Tune in to find out!

Joining us this week to talk about the importance of placing science and the labor movement at the center of the movement for a Green New Deal is Leigh Phillips, author of Austerity Ecology and the Collapse-Porn Addicts (Zero, 2015) and The People's Republic of Wal-Mart, co-authored with Michal Rozworski (Verso, 2019).

We discuss the scope and shape of a socialist Green New Deal, what kind of clean energy will be necessary, and critique the way that some progressives and socialists have gone about arguing for a green ecological movement.
