#241 "Crack-Up Capitalism": How libertarians want to free the market from democracy

from Dissens · host Dissens

Free ports, special economic zones or private cities: In new legal spaces capitalist extremists are trying to realize their vision of a world without nations-states and democracy. In his latest book "Crack-Up Capitalism" the historian of ideas Quinn Slobodian follows radical libertarians —from Peter Thiel to Elon Musk — as they try to find spaces where market competition is unfettered by democratic government. Quinn joins Dissens to talk about the threat of ultracapitalist micronations.
