Hyperpolitics

from LARB Radio Hour

In this special episode, Medaya Ocher, Kate Wolf, and Eric Newman discuss the current political quagmire we find ourselves in through the frame of Anton Jäger's Hyperpolitics. Moving from the 1990s to the present, Jäger's new book charts how the US has moved away from the mass political movements that defined the early- and mid-twentieth century. Though voter turnout reached a record in 2020, why do so many in the US feel atomized and disconnected, enmeshed in successive waves of political sentiment and agitation that never resolve? Medaya, Kate, and Eric discuss Jäger's argument, if the US's two party system offers any real choice, and if we'll ever move out of this hyperpolitical phase.
