This book tackles the question of why the United States is so
resistant to radical change towards economic justice and peace.
Taking full stock of the despair that launched the popular support
for Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, Swanger historicizes the
political paralysis of post-1974 United States that deepened
already severe economic inequalities, asking how the terrain for
social movements in the early twenty-first-century US differs from
that of the 1960s. This terrain is marked by the entrenchment of
neoliberalism, anti-intellectualism, and difficulties paradoxically
posed by the ease of social media. Activists now must contend with
a paralyzing "post-factual" moment. Alain Badiou's thought informs
this book on breaking through contemporary political paralysis.
