Crack-Up Capitalism by Quinn Slobodian is a fascinating book that explores the phenomenon of “crack-up” capitalism, which is the fracturing of conventionally understood national power and boundaries into distinct zones. Slobodian critically examines the authoritarianism and exploitation that often masquerades as “liberty” within conservative think tanks and online discourse. By delving into the ideas of influential figures like Milton Friedman and the utopian visions of radical libertarians, Slobodian provides a thought-provoking analysis of the changing landscape of capitalism in today’s world.
