On the weakness of state and capital – and their fusion.
Ilias Alami joins Alex and Lee to talk about his essential co-authored book, The Spectre of State Capitalism.
Why is state capitalism not just a China story, but is global?
What does the rise of state capitalism tell us about the health of contemporary capitalism?
How did globalisation and stagnation combine to give birth to it?
Is this an extension of neoliberalism or something new and different?
Does this represent a 're-politicisation' of the economy – and does it open up more hopeful political futures?
