. Hello and welcome to another episode of Politics Theory Other.

My name is Alex Doherty and the following is part three of a three-part interview with Jeremy Gilbert

about his new book, co-authored with Alex Williams, titled Hegemony Now, How Big Tech and Wall Street

won the world, and how we win it back. In the final part of our conversation, we talked about

some of Gilles de Lurz and Felix Quartari's key concepts, including the assemblage and

multiplicity, and how their ideas inform Jeremy and Alex's understanding of political change

and left strategy. Today's episode is brought to you by PTO supporters on Patreon, and also by

Verso Books, who have lots of great left-wing titles perfect for PTO listeners.

One you might like to check out is Democracy in the Political Present,

A Queer Feminist Theory by Isabel Lorry.

In the midst of threats to liberal democracy,

Isabel Lorry's new book develops a democracy in the present tense,

one which breaks open political certainties and linear concepts

of progress and growth. Her queer feminist political theory formulates a fundamental critique

of masculinist concepts of the people, representation and institutions. In doing so, she unfolds an

original concept of a presentist democracy, based on care and interrelatedness,

one which cannot be conceived of without social movements past struggles and current practices.

Democracy in the political present, a queer feminist theory by Isabel Lorry, is out now from Verso Books.

And now to today's interview.
