/235/ Political Ritalin ft. Anton Jäger
from Bungacast · host Bungacast
On our current attention-deficit and hyperpolitical disorder. In our book, The End of the End of History, we discuss the move from post-politics to anti-politics; from consensus to rejection; from apathy to anger. In a new article, Anton Jäger argues we've now moved into a hyperpolitical age. Is everything being politicised...except the really important stuff? We discuss some examples of hyperpolitics in Europe and North America and ask if what's going on is just a hot culture war, or something bigger. And what are the risks of an actual civil war in France or the US? Reading: How the World Went from Post-Politics to Hyper-Politics, Anton Jäger, Tribune Introduction from The End of the End of History, Bungacast, Merion West Did the culture wars ever end?, Q&A with Andrew Hartman, Illinois State
