  • Catherine Liu interview - frustrating!

    I've just listened to the Catherine Liu interview and here are some things it made me think:

    = If you have a guest, LET THEM SPEAK. It's an interview WITH someone not the interviewer's chance to let forth.

    - If you have a guest, please rehearse your questions so we don't have to listen to a long ramble before we reach a very weak question.

    - If you have a guest and they ask YOU a question, please do not avoid the question or answer with 'Here's what I've read which has nothing to do with your... more

  • Enjoy Your Podcast!

    Highbrow discourse analysis for the lowbrow listener stuck in a middlebrow world, after the beginning of the end of the End of History. In short, brilliant!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Gaza and Revolutionary Philosophy (feat. Yanis Iqbal)
Q: Could you say a bit more about how you are attempting to resurrect a Marxist perspective to transcend some of the limitations of post-colonial hegemony?
The aim is to recover a Marxist framework that foregrounds structure, class dynamics, and imperial totality, while avoiding simplistic reductionism that equates Marxism with mere political economy or post-colonialism with literature. This involves reintegrating aesthetics, agency, and material power into a more nuanced theory of emancipation.
Chinese Marxism (feat. Josef Gregory Mahoney)
Q: Do you think that China's political system is imperialist?
China does not operate under imperialism; it aims to maintain sovereignty while fostering cooperative development with other nations.
Chinese Marxism (feat. Josef Gregory Mahoney)
Q: How do you assess the Cultural Revolution?
The Cultural Revolution was needed to address the stagnation within the party and facilitate broader engagement with the masses.
Chinese Marxism (feat. Josef Gregory Mahoney)
Q: What do you see as the significance of the Sino-Soviet split?
The split illustrated the critical divergence in political strategies and ideological interpretations between Chinese and Soviet communism.
Chinese Marxism (feat. Josef Gregory Mahoney)
