Dissens#263 "What is moral socialism?" - Lea Ypi on rethinking socialist politics for todayPhilosopher and political theorist Lea Ypi on what a new socialism has to look like
In her Benjamin Lectures "What is moral socialism?" the political theorist Lea Ypi is rethinking socialism by bringing together both Kantian thought on freedom and Marxian social critique. Lea joins Dissens to talk about the trauma of stalinism, that she experienced growing up in Albania, and what going beyond capitalism should look like. Socialism today, argues Ypi, has to be a radicalization of liberalism and not its elimination.
