À propos de cet audio
To suggest that there is considerable turmoil across the globe is an understatement.
“Nature abhors a vacuum” is constantly given new reign.
Following the Soviet Union’s collapse in 1989, political scientist Francis Fukuyama announced history was dead.
His best selling “The End of History and the Last Man” is updated, still in print and nowhere near death.
Then in 2018 Fukuyama’s book “Identity” announces that “fragmentation based on alignment of interest into identity groups, has emerged as a new threat to democracy”.
On September 3, 2025 retired barrister Louise Clegg wrote an opinion article drawing on all the above, called “Sliding into technocracy”.
After thirty years in the legal profession, she guests in Podcast 302.
From Nietzsche to Charlie Kirk, it is a worthy discussion.
There’s more on the assassination of Charlie Kirk in the Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
