With Quinn Slobodian.Where does power really reside today?If capitalism no longer operates within the boundaries of nation-states, what happens to democracy? Who governs a world shaped by tax havens, special economic zones, and private infrastructures? And what if some of the most influential actors are no longer trying to win political power, but to escape it altogether?In this conversation with historian Quinn Slobodian, we explore the deeper logic behind neoliberalism, the rise of “exit” politics, and the growing fragmentation of sovereignty.A discussion about the shifting relationship between capital and democracy, and what it means for the future of our political systems.Chapters00:00 - Introduction to the Conversation02:00 - Understanding Historical Contexts05:03 - Power Dynamics in Modern Capitalism08:09 - The Evolution of Capitalism and Political Economy12:09 - The Role of Neoliberalism20:59 - The Intersection of Democracy and Capitalism30:05 - Special Economic Zones and Global Capitalism36:32 - Capitalist Utopias and Economic Zones39:08 - The Rise of Neoliberalism in the 1970s44:03 - International Economic Law and Capitalist Rights50:40 - The European Union: A Competing Vision53:00 - Debt as Political Discipline01:01:03 - Trumpism: A New Political Experiment01:11:53 - Neoliberalism and Geoeconomics01:17:07 - Understanding Empire and Power Dynamics01:23:36 - Muskism: A New Economic Paradigm?01:27:31 - Ecological Stress and Energy Limits01:35:37 - The Future of Nation-States and DemocracyRecorded on January 12, 2026---Retrouvez tous les épisodes et les résumés sur www.sismique.frSismique est un podcast indépendant créé et animé par Julien Devaureix.👉 Suivez Sismique sur : Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Linkedin👉 Rejoignez le serveur DISCORD SISMIQUE👉 Abonnez-vous à la newsletter👉 SOUTENEZ le projet !Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/sismiquepodcastTipeee : https://fr.tipeee.com/sismiquepodcastPaypal : https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/juliendevaureix Virement direct : contact via le formulaire sur le site Hébergé par Acast.
