      I talked to @FukuyamaFrancis about his great new book, "Identity: The Demand for Dignity and the Politics of Resentment." LISTEN to our #podcast discussion http://www.mattklewis.com/?p=10060 pic.twitter.com/eYgrXVncuv

      There’s a ton of interesting and provocative stuff here. For example, rather than seeing nationalism as merely one reaction to Islamism, Fukuyama sees them as two sides of the same coin.pic.twitter.com/PDT96feB6a

      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

          This is similar to Jonathan Haidt's thought in The Righteous Mind. Muslims having no idea how to exist as a minority is an under explored concept. If you look at Jews, they have a long cultural and intellectual history informing them of how to exist and excel as a minority.

          As the communists found out, money doesn't matter nearly as much as social status. In Hungary, all of the best and most accomplished students became mathematicians because in Hungarian culture, that was a job with status, even though all jobs paid the same.

          Materialist is an inadequate term. 'Money worshiper' is more accurate.
