The Subversive Seventies (with Michael Hardt)
Manage episode 377058427 series 2878419
The HBS hosts ask Michael Hardt why we so quickly jump from the 60's to the 80's in our political imagination?
Most histories of the present either overlook the seventies, jumping from the sixties of radical struggle to the eighties of Reagan/Thatcher and repression, or dismiss it as just the end point of the previous era struggles, the point where the sixties fell apart, collapsing into infighting, or went too far, devolving into violence.
What do we overlook in not thinking about the seventies as a decade of struggle? Moreover, what does an examination of the history of that period offer for thinking about politics today? Joining us this week to talk about what we can learn from the seventies and his recently published book, The Subversive Seventies, is Michael Hardt.
