Bonus - War Without Ideology w/ China Miéville and Richard Seymour

Danny and Derek speak with writers China Miéville (the forthcoming The Rouse) and Richard Seymour (⁠Disaster Nationalism⁠) about the changing character of the U.S. empire and global politics. They discuss the war with Iran as an expression of imperial decline, the absence of a coherent strategy in U.S. foreign policy, the collapse of ideological justification for war, the shift toward raw power politics, the relationship between the U.S. and Israel in this conflict, the weakening of liberal hegemony, and the broader implications for global capitalism and conflicts.
