DMcG | BS: Barthes: explanation of Trump's appeal (165* d) | RE: BS: Barthes: explanation of Trump's appeal | 13 Feb 17 |
I won't dwell on it unless we have to, Ake, but I think it is clear enough that while I think Bartnes does address one of many factors behind the election, I don't go along with the comment about IIiberal values. I would also make a very much stronger distinction between neoliberalism, which is essentially about deregulation of business and trade deals, and social liberalism, which is about how we treat each other. These are quite different, and blurring the distinction is at best unhelpful. |
