Bourgeois Bloc Blues w/ Bruno Amable

FLEP24 (A French Legislative Elections Podcast)

Olly & Marlon host Bruno Amable, the co-author with Stefano Palombarini of ⁠The Last Neoliberal: Macron and the Origins of France's Political Crisis.⁠

Bruno's a political economist and a Professor at the University of Geneva, so this guys knows his stuff.

This is Olly's favorite book, so we really get into it.

Marlon hasn't read it but we have a good discussion about what the bourgeois bloc was, what it is, what alliances it's pursuing, its relationship to racism, and the way it dissimulates - to itself and others.
