The Obama Syndrome
As the high expectations surrounding Barack Obama’s election subside and his administration grapples with an historic midterm defeat, Tariq Ali in conversation with Bonnie Greer, takes a timely look at Obama and his notion of ‘reform’. Can US politics ever escape a slant towards Republicanism and are Obama’s domestic and international policies actually surrenders to the establishment?
Tariq Ali is a writer and filmmaker. He has written over two dozen books on world history and politics, most recently The Obama Syndrome, as well as fiction. Bonnie Greer OBE is a playwright, author and critic, whose books include
Obama Music.
