Red Library: A Political Education Podcast for Today's Left


Mar 8, 2020

Comrade David joins us to complete his Holy Trinity of appearances on Red Library to discuss The Entrepreneurial State by Mariana Mazzucato. This is the first of a two-part series on the state within capitalist modes of production with part 2 coming soon on Leo Panitch and Sam Gindin's The Making of Global Capitalism: The Political Economy of American Empire.
 
We talk about the historical role of the state in investing in key areas of technological development, the public/private distinction in capitalism, existentialism, why we give up our freedom, the animal spirits of capitalism, and much more!
