Are Liberalism and Marxism Compatible? (Ft. Matt McManus)
Manage episode 397572863 series 3363723
Part 2 is available on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/OneDime
In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Matt McManus, political theorist and professor at the University of Michigan who is currently writing a book titled “The Political Theory of Liberal Socialism” and has been the author of various books such as “Postmodern Conservatism” and is a frequent contributor to Jacobin Magazine. He is also a co-ost of the Academic Edgelords podcast. I first found Matt through the Diet Soap Media podcast and the PlasticPills podcast. In this discussion, Matt and I discuss the mixed relationship between radical liberal thought and the socialist left. Matt advocates for a kind of “Liberal socialism,” and I ask some critical questions to examine Liberalism’s compatibility with socialist ideals and bring up some common Marxist criticisms, arguments, and objections to liberal ideas. This discussion encompasses the ideological framework, key principles, and potential contradictions of Marxist and Liberal perspectives on freedom, property, law, individual rights, and democracy, drawing from the works of influential figures like Thomas Paine, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, John Stuart Mill, and John Rawls. In part 2, we discuss the controversial challenges involving democracy, legitimacy, and liberty in the socialist transition that communist and social democrat regimes have historically faced.
