Dismantling the state in America and Britain

  • Summary

  • Conservatives on both sides of the Atlantic have a specific ideological fixation on dismantling the state. In America tech fuelled accelerationism has pushed catastrophic idea into the mainstream and it may now become a meaningful reality with predictably catastrophic results. In the UK, it remains a Tory idea and there is little sign of it gaining traction in a population which has experienced 14 years of austerity.
