Tonight, in London, England, a group of writers and thinkers will gather to debate a key cultural question: “Is woke dead?” And tomorrow, the inaugural conference of a new centre for social science kicks off. Academics will gather to talk through the intellectual origins of this movement and its politics, psychology, and driving interests, to establish it as a field of study, and to delve into overlooked topics and perspectives. My guest on the program is the man behind both of these events, and he joins me to share his thinking on the post-progressive era — and what it might mean for Canada going forward.
Eric Kaufmann is a Canadian academic and author. He’s a professor of politics at the University of Buckingham, and director of its Centre of Heterodox Social Science.
Eric Kaufmann returns to the program, today on Lean Out. Transcript to come for paid subscribers.
