/462/ Blame Carter ft. Tim Barker

On President Jimmy Carter's responsibility for neoliberalism.

[Patreon Exclusive]

Writer and historian Tim Barker talks to Alex Hochuli and contributing editor Alex Gourevitch about the former president's life and legacy.

  • What do people get wrong about Carter? Was Carter, not Reagan, the start of neoliberalism?

  • How is Carter's much-admired 'decency' of a piece with his neoliberalism?

  • What is 'austerity' and how does it relate to questions of public and private, vice and virtue?

  • What was the alternative to the neoliberal pivot in the late 1970s?

  • How did the appointment of Fed chairman Volcker change the entire world?

  • Did Carter set the script for the Democrats, of being 'noble losers' (but actually on the side of the winners)?
