YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLive-streamed on June 20, 2024
David Broder, historian and Europe editor at Jacobin, author of Mussolini’s Grandchildren: Fascism in Contemporary Italy, discusses the recent EU elections, and the upcoming elections in the UK and France.
David Broder then walks Emma through what the EU Parliament actually is and does (not much), and contextualizes the broader results of the recent round of elections, before parsing through the more worrying results out of France and Germany, which saw strong gains from the far-right RN (of Marine Le Pen) and AfD. Expanding on the France of it all, Broder tackles French PM Macron’s absurd decision to respond to the right-wing gains by calling a snap national election, what it tells us about liberals’ continued preference of the far-right over the progressive left, and what it could mean for the future of Le Pen’s party, using Italy’s Giorgia Meloni as a parallel to Le Pen’s seeming liberal-appeasing-pivot to more conventional, pro-establishment politics. After discussing the more radical brand of fascism coming out of Germany’s AfD, Emma and Broder wrap up with a brief assessment of the state of the left in Europe, and the ongoing failure of the retreat to the center (as seen in the UK).
