PROMETHEAN CITY BUILDERS VS FINANCE CAPITAL MALTHUSIANS: MULTIPOLARISTS VS ANGLO - AMERICAN EMPIRE PART II
The article argues that, after World War II, anti-communist “finance capitalists” shaped a “fake opposition” by influencing the New Left toward Romanticism, while promoting “centrism” as the political stance of the Anglo-American empire. It says centrist parties are losing elections and that the traditional linear left-right spectrum is “bankrupt,” citing shifting alliances across countries.
Background
The piece is Part II of a multi-part commentary contrasting “multipolarists” vs an “Anglo-American empire,” discussing centrism, Romanticism vs Enlightenment, and alleged shaping of the New Left.
Why it matters
No new, measurable corporate event is described; therefore there is no direct impact pathway to specific public companies.
