WTF is Wrong with Libertarianism? | Vivek Chibber | Capitalism and Marxism #189 HR
My friend Vivek Chibber discusses his journey into academia and his experiences as a left-wing social theorist. He explains how his upbringing and his personality led him to pursue academic research, and how he was fortunate enough to find a good place to do his Ph.D. and obtain a decent job. Chibber touches on the concept of empathy and how it is an inherent aspect of human beings, but notes that it is difficult to build a politics based on empathy alone, as it can clash with our desire to defend our material interests. He argues that capitalism forces us to make immoral decisions in order to succeed, and that success in many occupations requires engaging in what he calls "correctly sociopathic behavior."
