This week, we’re going as big picture as imaginable. Philip Pilkington has a thesis about liberalism itself:
1. That it is bad.
2. That it is ending.
That’s the nub of his new book, released this week.
He argues that the modern world order is based on a doctrinaire and unrealistic form of liberalism and has given rise to hollowed-out financialised economies and disintegrating societies that can barely even reproduce their population or meet their energy needs.
Only by abandoning our liberal delusions and adopting hard-headed post-liberalism can the West survive.
In this special edition, Andrew Collingwood interviewed him in front of an online audience on a live Twitter Spaces.
