The Intellectuals of Antiliberalism: Alternatives to Capitalist Modernity

The Intellectuals of Antiliberalism: Projects and Policies for Other Modernities: A timely book as we face a global crisis, the result of yet another period of triumphant liberalism. A collectively authored volume that offers a comprehensive, in-depth, and complex overview of the distinct strands that paved the way politically, culturally, socially, economically, and morally for the construction of alternatives to liberalism that became public policy in virtually every capitalist country from the 1930s until at least the 1980s. Classical thinkers such as Durkheim, Keynes, Lenin, and Carl Schmidt, as well as lesser-known thinkers such as Marcelo Caetano and Fernando Pessoa, and Brazilians Francisco Campos and Oliveira Vianna, as well as experiences, movements, and intellectual currents such as Francoism, the German military intelligentsia, the New Deal, Italy, among others, are analyzed in a series of essays with diverse perspectives. - Organized by Flávio Limoncic and Francisco Carlos Palomanes Martinho, the same authors who wrote The Great Depression: Politics and Economics in the 1930s – Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia, which had a great impact in 2009.
