In this episode, we’ll be talking about the role of fiction and imagination in helping us move beyond capitalism, and how they can assist us in tackling the significant economic and ecological crises we now face. Our guest is Nick Lawrence, an associate professor at the University of Warwick in the UK. We’ll discuss everything from postcapitalist novels to how Walmart could be a model for socialist utopia, and the Netflix show The Queen’s Gambit.
