Geoff Shullenberger on Rene Girard and the New Right
Episode 72
Wednesday, 6 December, 2023

Geoff Shullenberger is back for another fantastic episode. Geoff is one of the leading scholars on French philosopher Rene Girard. For this episode, we explore Girard's ideas and why they are important. We discuss the implications for the "New Right"; how Girard's ideas are becoming more popular; religion mapping to Girard's ideas; Christianity, Judaism, and Violence; growing out of your Ayn Rand phase, and much more. Geoff is the Managing Editor of Compact Magazine, a teacher, a thinker, and an important influence on many leading figures in Silicon Valley and beyond. During the discussion we mentioned a few links: Geoff's discussion with Justin Murphy Scott Alexander on I See Satan Fall Like Lightning
