Check the website here: http://enlites.com/ Dr. Sophie Scott-Brown is a Research Fellow at the University of St. Andrews. She is also Founder of the Everyday Democracy project with Open Society Foundation. She is well-known for her historical work on left-wing politics, especially the post-war British left. She is the author of The Radical Fifties: Activist Politics in Cold War Britain. In this episode, we focus on The Radical Fifties. We talk about the political context of 1950s Britain, and the activist politics that emerged from there, including anarchism, socialism, and pacifism. We discuss what it is to be “political”. Finally, we talk about how the 50s differ from the radicalism of the 60s. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVI…","meta_description":"******Support the channel****** Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thedissenter PayPal: paypal.me/thedissenter PayPal Subscription 1 Dollar: https://tinyurl…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4846,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-dissenter-1161217/episodes/1239-sophie-scott-brown-the-radical-fifties-activist-politics-in-cold-war-britain/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-dissenter-1161217/1239-sophie-scott-brown-the-radical-fifties-activist-politics-in-cold-war-britain.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
