Eric Kaufmann: Western Politics and the Race Taboo
Welcome to this special episode of the Sceptic with Professor Eric Kaufmann, on his new book, Taboo: How Making Race Sacred Produced a Cultural Revolution. Eric is Head of the Institute of Heterodox Social Science at the University of Buckingham, a member of the advisory board of the Free Speech Union and a senior fellow at Policy Exchange.
Host Laurie Wastell speaks to Eric about the thesis of this book, that what we know today as wokeism stems from the emergence of the race taboo in the 60s; what people get wrong about woke; its origins in the West’s Christian heritage; its impact on the immigration debate; why Conservative politicians won’t talk about demographics; why younger generations are woker, why that’s a problem, and the ‘Zoomer Right’ phenomenon; the culture war under a Labour government and how to fight back; and the need for a counter-narrative to woke.
