/186/ Aufhebonus Bonus ft. Lee Jones

On Covid state failure + responses to listeners.    The full episode is for subscribers only. Sign up at patreon.com/bungacast   We start off by discussing listener points and criticisms – e.g. is PMC a useful category? Is a counterculture a terrible idea? Were we wrong on Deleuze? More on the lockdown debate... – before featuring the second part of our discussion with Lee Jones on the coronavirus and state failure (from 45:30).   We look in depth at what went wrong in Western state responses to the pandemic, why they didn't follow their own plans, and compare this to South Korea's relative success.   Readings: How the pandemic has exposed Britain’s failed ‘regulatory state’, Lee Jones, Daily Telegraph COVID-19 and the failure of the neoliberal regulatory state, Lee Jones and Shahar Hameiri, Review of International Political Economy
