Endgame: Line Goes Down w/ Jamie Merchant
Added 2025-05-03 17:43:57 +0000 UTCJamie Peck speaks with Jamie Merchant, author of the book Endgame: Economic Nationalism and Global Decline, about the current state of things. As recently as the early 2000s, technocratic elites had come to a consensus around a fully globalized neoliberalism, but the crash of 2008 touched off a shift back towards economic nationalism that nobody could’ve predicted (except for Marx and people who’ve read Marx). How did we get here, and how might we exit the ever-worsening boom and bust cycle of capitalism? The Jamies discuss.

He started to hint at something important in this talk; the crisis and failures of the left can be reduced to a crisis and failure of leadership. An organization firmly rooted in the ideas of Marxism to push and guide the working class. Fortunately the Revolutionary Communist International is building that exact leadership, all around the world. You should have a comrade on sometime
