A central premise of the book is that both socialists & classical liberals are materialists, inasmuch as they believe money and class are fundamental motivators. In reality, things like dignity and pride and tradition matter a whole lot more than we realize.pic.twitter.com/lp802WHX25
Anyway, I was expecting another book lamenting "identity politics," and this was so much deeper & more thought provoking than that. The podcast will soon propagate on @itunes and @Stitcher, but you can listen to it right now, here! http://www.mattklewis.com/?p=10060
You convinced me I will definitely check out the podcast

Fukuyama elsewhere: “Citizenship can no longer be defined by ethnicity or religion but needs to be related to liberal Enlightenment values like constitutionalism and the rule of law”. Why can’t some countries choose both?
That certainly isn't true of Irish nationalism. Book looks interesting.
