What, if anything, is the difference between having ideological commitments and belonging to a "cult"?
This week's episode is a "deep dive" into the
very deep waters of ideology and ideological commitments. A couple of important notes for listeners: first, this episode was recorded the day
before William Clare-Roberts' excellent essay
"Ideology and Emancipation: Voluntary Servitude, False Consciousness, and the Career of Critical Social Theory" was published. (We promise to do our level best to get him on the podcast for a Part 2 of this "Ideology" series!) Second, we are VERY excited to announce our new partnership with
Edinburgh University Press, which is not only sponsoring this episode, but a number of other HBS episodes this season! EUP has generously offered our listeners a discount on their current catalog, so be sure to enter the discount code "HBS" when you buy books on
their website!
