    In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by political theorist Benjamin St. Studebaker, a PhD at Cambridge and author of the books “The Chronic Crisis of American Democracy” and “Legitimacy in Liberal Democracies,” on we are witnessing the “end of neoliberalism” (given the ongoing tariff wars and move away from globalization in favor of right wing populsim and protectionism). Whether “Neoliberalism” was really a useful concept in the first place. We also discuss how liberal thinkers like Ezra Klein and Francis Fukuyama have been moving away from neoliberal economics and towards a kind of neo-Keynesianism.

    In The Backroom, Benjamin and I discuss the idea of building educational “Monestaries” as an alternative to Academia and Benjamin’s idea of “vulture socialism.” Become a Patron at Patreon.com/OneDime if you haven’t already!

Dr. Hayward specializes in explaining China's political economy and misconceptions surrounding it. The conversation explores the role of state planning in China's market system, the impact of Deng Xiaoping's economic reforms, the significant shifts in labor and welfare policies, and the nuanced relationship between the Chinese Communist Party and its capitalist class. We also delve into the ideological revival under Xi Jinping and whether or not China is really transitioning to socialism.

In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by a friend of the show, Benjamin Studebaker, PhD in politics and international studies from the University of Cambridge, to discuss the recent tensions between Trump, Zelensky, Europe, Mexico, and Canada. Studebaker provides a radically nuanced take on the reasons why the US was so keen to back continue the Ukraine war previously and the logic behind Trump's administration's strategy with regard to Ukraine and NATO allies. Additionally, the episode discusses Trump's new tariffs on Canada and how they have radically altered the Canadian political landscape.

    In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Alice Cappelle, a left-wing French video essayist, to discuss the ongoing political fiasco in France following the 2024 French elections. We discuss the Left (New Popular Front coalition), The far-right (The National Rally), and President Emmanuel Macron (The Center). We compare the current situation in France to the state of the left and right in the United States and what this all means for strategy.
