We continue our discussion with anthropologist Roger Lancaster who has lived and researched in Mexico for decades, on the past and present of Mexican radicalism.

• How has popular conservatism served as a boost for radicalism and revolution 
• Is there any basis for a 'romantic' anti-capitalism, in Mexico, or in the Global North?
• Is President AMLO synthesising a new politics? 
• Has he “ended neoliberalism” or on the way to it?
• How socially conservative is AMLO really?
