The Future of Political Anger: A Conversation with Mark Blyth
Summary
Trump’s voters. The yellow jackets in France. Putin’s base in Russia. The Brexiteers. One thing all these groups have in common is anger – anger at being left behind, anger about de industrialization, anger at the arrogance and wealth of the elite.

Today I talked to Blyth, a professor of political economy at Brown University.
