HOW TO BREAK THE WORLD by Quinn Slobodian
On July 25, the New York Times published an op-ed by Quinn Slobodian and Alexander Kentikelenis on the same topic as Prof. Slobodian’s forthcoming book HOW TO BREAK THE WORLD. “Right-wing economic nationalists speak of increasing the welfare of ‘their’ people,” Slobodian writes, “but they do so by scapegoating outsiders and turning a blind eye to — if not actively supporting — the very machinery that has helped produce domestic inequality. Without democratizing finance, wealth will never be shared in a way that rewards people fairly for their labor.” Metropolitan will publish the book in 2022.
