There has been no greater exemplar of zombie neoliberalism in power than
French President Emanuel Macron's imperial technocracy. Now, with the rise of
the Yellow Vest (Gilets jaunes) movement, there no clearer evidence that
zombie neoliberalism is bound to fail. This crisis cannot be solved with the
centrist policies and politics that caused it in the first place. But where
will the movement head, and who will benefit politically?And what does this
reveal about neoliberal approaches to the climate crisis? Dan's guests are
Danièle Obono, a French member of parliament with the left-wing party la
France Insoumise, or France Unbowed, and ROAR magazine editor Jerome Roos.
