On Trump's return and the end of the End of History (still!)
Historian and Jacobin contributing editor Matt Karp joins us to extract the true meaning of the US election. We discuss:
-
How Trump's victory explodes so many Democrat assumptions about demography and identity
-
How this election re-writes the past ten years' history
-
Whether Trump still retains an anti-political or anti-establishment charge
-
If the Democrats are preponderant in leading sectors of the knowledge economy, is this a political rejection of its assumptions?
-
How to place this election in the sweep of the global anti-incumbency wave
-
What the relationship is between inflation, labour and legitimacy
