1. As a good complement, earlier this year I published this chapter in the edited volumen Market Economists Beyond the West, edited by Tobias Rupprecht in Routledge. In there, I relate the 1980s story to the longer Peruvian genealogy of neoliberal ideas. www.routledge.com/Market-Econo...

1.NEW ARTICLE. Fresh out of the oven, I want to share my article on “neoliberal populism” just out in out in Global Perspectives. I analyze the ideational origins of Peru's resilient neoliberalism in the 1980s. Here a free access to the article (for a month). online.ucpress.edu/gp/article/d...

Economics can either enable the slide toward fascism, or defend affordability, dignity, and democracy. I wrote ANTI-FASCIST ECONOMICS with my baby by my side—a constant reminder that the future should be livable for all. Out in October with Random House.

With Alexander Kluge the other great theorist of the public sphere died, shortly after Habermas. Today we live the effects of the pacification of conflicts through “facades of legitimation” & “pseudo-publics” & the resulting blockages of social hopes, experiences & needs he diagnosed. 1/2
