10. Slavoj Zizek: Could COVID destroy capitalism?
Season 1, Ep. 10
•
Slavoj Žižek is one of the world's pre-eminent intellectuals. A renowned academic and the author of several bestselling books. We had a lot to talk about: capitalism and the pandemic, whether a revitalised US left can extract concessions from Joe Biden, the threat of the new right, Donald Trump and Trumpism, whether a more successful version of Trump could triumph, the power of social media giants, dominatrixes and loads more.
