John Gray, author of The New Leviathans: Thoughts After Liberalism, joins The Realignment. Marshall and John discuss why he believes Hobbesian political realism is the only way of understanding the world of the 2020s, how faith in a liberal, well managed future peaked in the 1990s, why history could never truly "end," and how current events from Ukraine, Gaza, and the Pacific reflect could use a more self-aware, realistic, and disabused ethical approach.  Subscribe to The Realignment to access our exclusive Q&A episodes and support the show: https://realignment.supercast.com/REALIGNMENT NEWSLETTER: https://therealignment.substack.com/PURCHASE BOOKS AT OUR BOOKSHOP: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignmentEmail Us: realignmentpod@gmail.comFoundation for American Innovation: https://www.thefai.org/posts/lincoln-becomes-fai

Deirdre McCloskey is Distinguished Professor Emerita of Economics and of History and Professor Emerita of English and of Communication at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She is also Isaiah Berlin Chair in Liberal Thought at the Cato Institute. Over the span of her career, Deirdre has written on economic theory, history, rhetoric, feminism, ethics, law, and more. In this episode, she and Robinson discuss her political philosophy—classical liberalism. They begin by discussing her training before delving into liberalism's roots in the eighteen and nineteenth centuries as a celebration of freedom of speech and innovation, as well as its doctrine of equality under the law. They then compare it to competing views, such as conservatism, and address common criticisms of classical liberalism, such as its alleged inability to respond to crises like global warming or that the free market will concentrate wealth in the hands of a few.

This week, Scott and Karl finish their discussion of John Dewey's essay, "Challenge to Liberal Thought."  Written in his later life, Dewey expands on his criticisms of the Great Books of Western Civilization enterprise and a liberal arts education.  The duo agrees— this is shoddy work to say the least. At the end of their conversation, Scott says, “This is just not very good. I wonder, how did these people get the traction that they got? Why do our intellectual overlords keep telling us we need to read Dewey?"   Tune in to hear the rest of Scott and Karl's response to Dewey's essay.  Brought to you by onlinegreatbooks.com. 

In the tradition of intellectual fairness, Scott and Karl read from someone they don't agree with this week. Toted as the 'King of Progressive Philosophers', John Dewey was an educational reformer active throughout the first half of the 20th century. He left a very significant, progressive mark on the public school system.  His essay "Challenge to Liberal Thought" can be found in The Later Works of John Dewey, Volume 15 which focuses on his writings between the years 1942 to 1948. This particular essay expands on his criticisms of the Great Books of Western Civilization enterprise and a liberal arts education.  Scott says, “This is a utopian, managerial approach to social sciences that's pretty gross.... If you've never read Dewey, this encapsulates progressives' whole attitude and approach to managing people." Tune in to hear Scott and Karl's response to Dewey's essay, and be sure to tune in next week for Part Two. Brought to you by onlinegreatbooks.com.

As liberal ideology is infiltrating America's churches, author and pastor Lucas Miles exposes the "religious trojan horse" in his new book The Christian Left: How Liberal Thought Has Hijacked the Church. Some even question whether the Bible is the written word of God - a belief that tries to shake the pillars of the Christian faith. Can someone who questions whether Jesus was the son of God call themselves a Christian?

Today we speak to Danny Haiphong, co-author of American Exceptionalism and American Innocence: A People's History of Fake News--From the Revolutionary War to the War on Terror, and regular contributor to the Black Agenda Report. We talk about the decades long war on truth by the media and other “pillars” of so-called liberal thought. Mr. Haiphong illustrates, with stunning clarity, the omissions and hypocrisy foisted on the American people by their government, not least of which is the perpetuation of “innocence” and how we are always the “good guy.” Become a member at patreon.com/thebittertruth    

Religion! So Medieval, right?Well, yes- and ancient, and paleolithic, and well- every other time bar none!Religion is baked into our DNA! You can be ‘trendy’, you can deny it completely: but you really can’t, not really.Neanderthals had a religion, possibly moon worship, but we can’t be sure. They certainly laid their departed to rest, bedecked with flowers for the next world). What we can be certain about is that any people who denied a higher power (think NAZI’s and COMMUNIST’S) - well, they wound up in a nihilistic NIGHTMARE, where in the Nazi’s case they started to worship strange paganistic rituals, and in communism (and Nazi socialism too, come to think of it) they started in on dictator worship instead: (Stalin and Hitler and Mao to name a few worthies).Our very species evolved with a notion of a higher power- a GOD. Usually matriarchal in the beginning, (the Moon), but then evolving into a patriarchal, SUN god over time. It is in our very DNA- deny it at your peril. Go ahead: deny that there is anything other than man and random chance in the Universe. Go ahead…It’s a lie, a lie that is built within us to detect: from the Earth Mother, to Zeuss, to Mithra and the Son of God himself- they are all here, they are all US. Your fake, climate change denial, hedonism and multiculturalist diversity nightmare all outline it in bright colours: there is a God, or else there is nothing. And our evolutionary dictates tell us that there IS.If there is not a God, what is there? This has been answered, time and again. If you deny there is any god, it sucks you dry, from the inside. All is nothing, there is nothing but blind chance, and life is nothing. This destroys you, personally. You are nothing…Then, you try to substitute, out of desperation: You read fantasy stories where there is meaning, you watch movies where there is meaning as well (never realizing that the subject and plot lines of these movies and stories is taken from Christian and ancient Western archetypes), pretending there is meaning where your cynical, liberalized mindset prohibits you from looking overall-And then, as your culture at large adopts this attitude of Liberal Thought writ large: you begin to notice the overall cultural rot. Without an overarching, cultural program of a God Centered Universe- THERE IS NOTHINGNothing to live for, nothing to aspire to-Total hedonism, and then, ultimately- oblivion..And it’s all a lie. Through our very evolution, we know this to be untrue . We in the Western tradition have built a civilization that is second to none, that has transformed the world. And we know what happens when there is- nothing.When there is no belief, when everyone in a society, or the majority, believe in nothing: History has shown godless societies to be unfit for survival. Time and again, they have been outcompeted by both gods-fearing and God-fearing societies. When God’s law is not observed, the law can become whatever the ruler wants it to be: Ultimately there are no human rights, let alone property rights, as totalitarianism reigns. When religion becomes ascendant, so too does the rule of law. And human animals, when given free reign through the idea of no absolutes, meanin

Join Jamie Parker and James Robinson as we sit down with PhD candidate Sana Tannoury-Karam to talk about Arab Communists and the Arab Left in the interwar period through World War Two. We talked about Sana's journey from studying political science in Beirut to studying history in Boston. She touches on individuals in Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq and the evolution of Communist Parties throughout the Arab world from organic local creativity to strict Stalinism. Sana argues for an "internationalist moment" in the interwar period, contrary of the historiography of the region being sectarian and divided. She recounts her research journeys and difficulties consulting resources in the Middle East, especially with her focus on Lebanon and women's movements with Communism. She also explores the tensions between labor and CPs, and the politics of global anti-fascism.
