UNLOCKED Riley's Commie Book Club: The Blurst Is Yet to Come

Riley's Commie Book Club is a bit different. This time, Riley speaks with scholar and author Peter Fleming — you might recognize the name from a previous episode discussing his book 'The Death of Homo Economicus' — and this time they cover the subject of Peter's new book, 'The Worst Is Yet to Come: A Post-Capitalist Survival Guide.' Peter Fleming is a professor at the University of London and the University of Technology, Sydney. He is the author of several books, including The Mythology of Work (2015) and The Death of Homo Economicus (2017). His writing has appeared in the Guardian and Financial Times. Peter stayed up late in Australia in order to have a lively discussion with your delightful host, and we're greatly appreciative of him. You should buy Peter's book, and you can do so here: https://repeaterbooks.com/product/the-worst-is-yet-to-come-a-post-capitalist-survival-guide/
