Anyone understands what he says at min 48:05? English is not my first language

Great programme !

Tell us why the authoritarian, illiberal model of China outperforms Hong Kong & Singapore in cultural dynamism, entrepreneurial culture and indigenous innovation.

“The moral imperative of growth” why is this the moral imperative? Completely unacceptable way to dismiss the will of the people.

Liberal democracies don’t want to “bring” qualitative discourse or build anything. They have destroyed ethnic communities and now want new ways to control the discourse. If they wanted quality discourse just loosen up the speech restrictions in universities and online. But that is never going to happen as long as they are liberal democratic capitalist republics

Very thankful!

Thank you! What a treat! Listening in my pool. Grateful

Thank you. I found a new channel now.

The masses don't even vote in primaries. They don't know.

Philippe Buonarroti Conspiracy of Equality I havent read it yet. Just read about him on Wikipedia. Is that our fate?

I say God grant me the serenity...

Im separated but live in the same house with rules. Im Dutch so public assistance is not in my dna & a step back. Charity care. I just study and do holistic skincare on myself. Im observing.

I left the social work field in 2020. During that time, I observed avatars getting remote degrees free in psychology. No internship, no work in the field, no liscense but charging for counseling. The school social workers and teachers in my state dx trans anything and not qualified. Based on social work ethics they arent. Im just observing.

I'm an official card carrying Ian Shapiro groupie. Rwanda class at Yale is my favorite.

A bit too much 'Mmm hmmm, mmm, yeh, yeh' from the interviewer but the content was amazing - thank you.

And why should we believe you?

More than 30 minutes into his talk, Bryan is still yet to explicitly lay out his thesis and its building blocks. All he’s done so far is give out ChatGPTesque descriptions. And it turns out that Bryan never bothers to explicate the mechanism for his argument throughout the entire talk. Just surface level musings. Absolutely stunning.

Comparative study on tiny city states has very little external validity.

WHAT STUPIDITY! A VIDEO WITHOUT ANY VIDEO. JUST BLINKING WHICH WILL TRIGGER EPILEPSY ATTACKS. HOW IGNORANT.

She is one of the great philosophers of our day and age.

Socialism is not state ownership. This is another dose of ignorance. Read Marx, he talked about the withering away of the state and abolition of the wages system. Where in the world has that happened. Lenin, in 1920 actually admitted that what had been created in Russia was not Communism or Socialism but something that should be called STATE CAPITALISM. That is from the horses mouth not its backside.

Privatisation of public services is a failure

It's good to know that our American forefathers were not blinded by greed and exploitation of their fellow Americans. Also, that explanation of artists' work in the Q&A!

Gonzalo Lira defined Niall. P.B.U.H.

thanks!

I'm surprised you didn't say anything about colonialism, including Great Geographical discoveries. As we know, colonialism created a flow of colossal amounts of “valuables”, including gold, silver and much more. And playing the role of “Chief”/Ruler formed in people in metropolitan countries a complex of “greatness” ("white superiority/supremacy"). China never colonized “overseas” territories and was closed to its own. I think for the Industrial Revolution in GB particularly that was a very important factor.

Excellent, very informative.

Thanks, this has decent audio and is interesting.

Recognition as a master was incumbent upon building a literal masterpiece. Where are our masterpieces now?

'People of Jewish extraction' - otherwise known as Jews.

The discussion of Hobbes condenses the thrust of "Hobbes and Republican Liberty." He's arguably the most methodologically rigorous intellectual historian and his work is really useful to me. I just tend to think he exemplifies a few problems in the field. If philosophers are almost entirely disinterested in context, his ""interventions in discursive contexts" approach tends to be almost entirely disinterested in the ideas themselves. Just to pick on two: Firstly, his insistence on the eschewal of influence, particularly philosophical influence - therefore, we cannot say Plato influenced some philosophers millennia later as that's disembodying them from the immediate context, except where we have knock-down textual support. But often philosophers make oblique references to past influence, especially in the form of aphorisms and epigraphs. Secondly, certain ideas in philosophy are perennial, and everyone would recognize them when they read them as a reiteration of Aristotle, Lucretius, Liebniz, whoever, etc. He's the best we have in the choices of Hegel, Strauss, or the completely unsystematic work of Isaiah Berlin.

Atlas and aunty chop chop..

Shut up idiot.

Who is this moron? A banker? These people are retarded. Every few years all the banks FAIL.

The word "economy" has been hijacked by finance and trade and his meaning changed to the opposite of what it used to be. Likewise, the expression "representative democracy" is an oximoron. Likewise, the expression "freedom of religion" is also an oximoron. We do actually live in a Babel tower that prevent us to understand each other.

Loved both his books. Seeing Like A State. Against The Grain. We have much to learn from those people, who evaded the state, did not pay taxes and robbed from the elites.

Information and statistics can be interpreted to match your viewpoint, which is neoliberalism and free, open markets. The most dramatic impact of the guilds was Protectionism, protection of the local workers, against competition based on lower prices stemming from lower cost of production... i.e. China etc.. the import tariffs of the 70s and before did exactly what the guilds did, protect the local products, and the jobs that are involved.. the result of abolishing them was the destruction of industry, loss of know-how, lower imcomes, unemployment, etc etc.. And no, free markets doesn't mean lower cost for the consumer, there are under the table agreements and geographical division of markets, as well as elimination of less powerful competition, by the large few corporations that obviously rule the world. As economic history proved, open markets lead to less competition, to cartels, and oligopolies.. in this environment, innovation dies at the altar of profit... it makes more money to produce aspirins with different tastes every year, than do serious research to cure cancer...

Astonishing starting argument

Despite its being clearly a dialogue, one gets a glimpse of what Quentin Skinner may be like as a tutor, and it's all good.

Andrew Bridgen in parliament should be promoted to Prime minister not thrown out, telling the truth is indeed a revolutionary act in globalist totalitarian Britain. ruclips.net/video/zTgfqJUZ9Hw/видео.html

I got bored after the first 15 minutes or so of rambling introductions and the litany of academic titles. Sorry I couldn't listen to this.

I have listened to many of Quentin's conversations and lectures on RUclips this is however arguably the best .... loved the Hobbesian take on theatre and socio-political life.

Crank it up!!!!
