"Democracy is dead. ..... Any vestige of democracy is gone."


Listen to the interview: https://soundcloud.com/this-is-hell/832henrygiroux


The future demands a new political consciousness. We can't just wait for neoliberal economics to tear apart society and then build from scratch. Cultural critic Henry Giroux published his thoughts in the Truthout analysis article Authoritarianism, Class Warfare and the Advance of Neoliberal Austerity Policies. Author and cultural critic Henry Giroux holds the Global Television Network Chair in English and Cultural Studies.
