Joseph Stiglitz is a Nobel laureate who has advised multiple Democratic presidents and the World Bank, where he worked as chief economist and senior vice president. He’s long been a leading critic of the liberal leanings that have dominated the West’s economic policy for four decades. His new book, The Road to Freedom, continues the argument.
In this Spectator TV special, Kate Andrews challenges Joseph Stiglitz on why he seems to compare Thatcherism with communism; why he isn't more worried about the abusive potential of an interventionist state; and whether neoliberalism really has failed.

This guy being an advisor for the Democrats and World Bank comes as no surprise. Two organisations that have been damaging to economic growth and promoters of authoritarian politics. Blaming Thatcher and Reagan for the damage done by his own anti-human ideologies is laughable.

Agreed. "Trickle Down Economics" is a straw man. It was a term invented by the fireside social commentator and vaudeville cowboy, Will Rogers. It was his homespun way of explaining away the motives of industrialists. But he was wrong - why wouldn't he be? He was an entertainer, not an economist. So why all these socialism apologists with letters after their names and economics Nobel prizes keep talking about it is beyond me. Only it isn't. I know why they use this cowboy's straw man: it is so their own controllist instincts and desires are never scrutinised.

@@DailyCorvid I don’t think there was any Fascism before Mussolini. It was a new, historically contingent phenomenon. Umberto Eco claims there’s something called “ur-Fascism” which has always been with us. He does this so that he can claim that all forms of social conservatism are effectively Fascist and therefore bad. If you follow the logic of Eco’s argument, he’s claiming that the only non-Fascist right wing ideology is actually the neoliberal, anti-tradition, Ayn Rand sort that just believes in markets and personal autonomy - the very sort Stiglitz thinks leads to Fascism. But that argument has many problems. For one thing it really doesn’t help to describe every pre-modern traditionalist as a Fascist (Edmund Burke's "Reflections on the Revolution in France" is not remotely a Fascist text). For another, it strips out the revolutionary, modernist side of Fascism - the side which attracted the Italian Futurists. Friedrich Reck famously described the NSDAP as “revolutionaries in Gothic drag”, and it’s a plausible characterisation. For another, Fascist economics (which was basically Keynesian economics) was actually copied by the western left. Stiglitz supports a lot of it. For instance, Roosevelt’s New Deal public works programmes were copied directly from Mussolini’s programmes such as the reclamation of the Pontine Marshes. As soon as you try and decide which post-1945 governments have been Fascist, the argument is heavily corrupted by ideology. For instance, Peronism in Argentina was arguably Fascist. But it wasn’t palpably evil in the way mid 20th century Germany was. Many of those who argue it wasn’t Fascist are simply trying to avoid having an example of “good” Fascism. I think that Xi Jinping’s China is closer to Fascism than to Communism. There’s a tendency for Communist regimes which persist beyond their revolutionary moment to move in that direction. “Permanent World Revolution” gives way to “Socialism In One Country” or “Socialism With Chinese Characteristics”; in other words, a form of “National” Socialism.

I had never watched this show before. It represents views opposite to mine (although this wasn't why I hadn't seen it; I simply wasn't aware of it), but I believe it's important to engage in such debates, especially in these tumultuous times. I felt the interviewer really pressed Professor Stiglitz on some crucial issues, sometimes perhaps not allowing him to fully articulate his responses, although generally in a respectful manner, as is appropriate in a debate. However, I don't believe she ultimately succeeded. That being said, I do think that Prof. Stiglitz could have carried out a more profound philosophical critique of neoliberalism, but then he might have had to criticize capitalism itself, which is something he does not want to do. I think this enabled the interviewer to quasi-corner him on some issues that deserve a more nuanced and principled analysis (like the comparison with the Nordic countries). Still, I do not think she succeeded in making a compelling case here either. In general, I think that the interviewer's points are mostly ideology-based but necessary to deal with seriously because we are in times where ideology is obstructing the perception of facts, even the more obvious ones. This is why I welcome these sorts of debates more than ever. Democracy must prevail.

' Freefall'was a great book, I'll read this too. However my initial thoughts are that the threats to freedom and democracy are coming from the Globalist Left Wing and it has been interesting these last days as many from all sides of the Overton Window have rightly pointed out the same reflections upon recent elections:The 'as 'Far-Right' as we have' political parties did absolutely dismally in the elections, none of them - and there were few - kept their deposits. Lots of recognition that 'Britain First' did terribly. The Tories have been absolutely trounced but Labour not doing as well as they might with many votes going to Green, Socialist Workers Party, and Independents. The Tory votes mostly didn't go Right.Some 40 of these local posts though were won on small turn outs with - take your pick - block/tribal/sectarian voting patters and 'IslamoLeftist' candidates winning local elections based upon international issues i.e. Zionists/Jew/Gaza/Ummah. There were no No 'Far-Right' won seats, the apparently 'fascist' (not my words) ReformUK haven't done well, half of what they imagined. Apparently ReformUK are Far-right but they aren't exactly taking off are they? No support because the reality seems clear, there is no Far-Right movement worthy of column inches in UK, there are always going to be proper loony extremists when you have near 70 million people and a crazy world and that means some Far-Right actual Nazis and types who want to blow things up, but there is no 'threat' to society from these few thousand people. We seem left to conclude that IF this country IS a nation of racists then they are too lazy/silent/apathetic/stupid enough to be motivated by their racism and hate to go and vote. So what to worry about? Meanwhile, there is clearly a set who are most very motivated to go out and vote and/Far-Right'? Maybe this nation could grow up and have a mature conversation about all this? All we people who believe in secular democracy are a very broad church and whatever our other differences are we can sort them out in debate, we have a long history of managing to do just that. Come on Britain please do better.

Fascism isn't when there's populist outrage or authoritarianism. It's a response to the incompatibility between liberal democracy and the liberal economy: Voting people will want a say in how the economy is run, so in fascism, the "state" or "party" becomes the representative of the will of the people in order to control the economy. Neoliberalism is exactly the opposite of fascism, but it exacerbates this inherent contradiction between liberal democracy and the liberal economy making the rise of fascism more likely along with other resolutions to this incompatibility, such as oligopoly or social democracy.
