YouTube Description
as posted by the channelMatt McManus is a lecturer in Political Science at the University of Michigan. He has written the book The Political Theory of Liberal Socialism, which threads together thinkers from Mary Wollstonecraft to John Stuart Mill to Karl Marx. Matt asks whether liberalism and socialism should be considered at loggerheads in the way they usually are today. The book is mostly an exercise in ‘retrieval’ i.e. recovering the liberal socialist tradition, but McManus considers himself a liberal socialist and I’m now wondering whether I do!
