Trump, Brexit and the twilight of neoliberalism

Laurence Cox and Alf Gunvald Nilsen have just published an extended piece for Pluto Press drawing on a shorter one for the Sociological Review, looking at the "twilight of neoliberalism" highlighted in their book We Make Our Own History and how Trump and Brexit can be understood - and resisted.

Making our own history

Laurence Cox and Alf Nilsen launched their book We Make Our Own History: Marxism and Social Movements in the Twilight of Neoliberalism at the Historical Materialism conference in London (November 2014), with responses from Colin Barker, Subir Sinha and Lesley Wood. You can see the full video on the Pluto Press website - the video quality isn't ideal but the audio is fine. There's also a session with Laurence Cox for the International Sociological Association's social movements research committee on youtube - again the audio is better than the video!
