Excerpt: /354/ Reading Club: Legitimacy (II)
from Bungacast · host Bungacast
On Jürgen Habermas' Legitimation Crisis. [Patreon Tier II & III Exclusive] What made postwar capitalism 'organised'? And why did many believe it had overcome economic crisis? In this second episode on Legitimacy, we go through part 2 of Habermas' book, where its main concerns reveal themselves. How does the role of the state in managing the economy transfer crises into the realm of politics and society? Bourgeois ideology seems pretty thin on its own and doesn't provide enough motivation, so what happens when traditionalism no longer holds sway? Is capitalism just hanging on by a thread: the thread of civic privatism? Sign up for $10/mo for full access to the Reading Club: patreon.com/bungacast Join a local Reading Club.
