One that you might like is, struggle makes us human, learning from movements for socialism

by Vijay Prasad. In this book of interviews with international solidarity organizer Frank Barat,

This week I'm posting my interview with Quinz Labodian on his book Globalists,

The End of Empire and the Birth of Neoliberalism. It tells the story of neoliberalism's Geneva School,

people like Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich Hayek and Willem Rupke, and their vision for a new

imperial order that would establish rules to protect the market from democracy. It's a movement
