Hello!Today for the holiday weekend, we have Nancy Fraser, the Henry and Louise Loeb Professor of Political and Social Science at the New School. She has written widely on feminism, injustice, the problem with identity politics, and neoliberalism. Her most recent books are Cannibal Capitalism and The Old is Dying and the New Cannot Be Born, both of which were published by Verso.We revisited an extremely prescient essay she wrote in 2017 for American Affairs about progressive neoliberalism, hegemony, and how Trump both disrupted and reified the existing order. Lotta great talk in this one about whether the Democrats will ever wake up, economic populism, what Trump might do in his second term and more! This is a public episode.

In this conversation with RevDem Political Economy and Inequalities section co-head Vera Scepanovic, Nancy Fraser – whose newest book Cannibal Capitalism has just been released – explains why the ongoing crises of democracy, healthcare, climate, and racial injustice are really manifestations of a single broader crisis of capitalism; how the ability of capitalism to survive by redrawing boundaries between the economic and non-economic realms is being challenged; and what an emancipatory coalition building might look like that ambitions more than greater inclusion into the existing system. Nancy Fraser is a philosopher and political scientist whose work embraces social and political theory, feminist theory, and contemporary French and German thought. She is the Henry A. and Louise Loeb Professor of Philosophy and Politics at The New School in New York City. Her previous books include Unruly Practices: Power, Discourse, and Gender in Contemporary Social Theory (1989) and Fortunes of Feminism: From State-Managed Capitalism to Neoliberal Crisis (2013). Cannibal Capitalism. How Our System Is Devouring Democracy, Care, and the Planet—and What We Can Do About It is published by Verso.
