Joel Kotkin Discusses The Coming of Neo-Feudalism with Mark Bauerlein
By: Mark Bauerlein
On: First Things
Joel Kotkin joins contributing editor Mark Bauerlein on the First Things podcast to talk about his recently published book, The Coming of Neo-Feudalism: A Warning to the Global Middle Class
The new feudalism arising today shares characteristics with the previous feudalism of the middle ages: the rejection of reason — with a replacement “orthodoxy” that must be adhered to, class stratification, and economic stagnation for the working class.
The conversation is embedded below.
