[Patreon Exclusive]
Trade unionist and researcher Dustin "Dino" Guastella joins us to talk about the deficiencies of a libertarian or antinomian approach to social problems. We start off with Dino telling us about the Teamsters union, before moving on to:
How have American cities developed such problems?
What are the pros and cons of the 'Portuguese Model' of drug decriminalization?
What is the problem with harm reduction, and how does it connect to notions of 'bare life'?
How are insecurity and precarity changing people's political demands and expectations?
Is there something to be learned from the Christian tradition? Should we all be reading Alasdair MacIntyre?
How do we build a politics of human flourishing?
