The Managerial Revolution and the American Deep State

The Reality Taboo by Ness and Jeff

Episode notes

James Burnham predicted in his 1941 work The Managerial Revolution that capitalism and socialism were both finished — and that a new class of bureaucrats, technicians, and institutional managers would inherit power instead. Ness and Jeff apply Burnham's framework to the American deep state, the Russia investigation, and the career of Robert Mueller.
