Economic Determinism, Identity Politics & Overdetermination: 2018
What is the primary cause of an event or action? How do we look at the causes of the big political shifts of the past few years; Brexit, Trump, Populism. The Marxist philosopher, Louis Althusser, in an essay titled ‘Contradiction and Overdetermination’ argued that ruptures are overdetermined – it’s the plurality of causes that create a shift, but driven by economic determinism ‘in the last instance.’ Karl Polanyi disputed Marx’s economic determinism, arguing, along with Keynes, that it was ideas that drove history, not economics. I look at determinism in context with identity politics and the linguistic turn and poststructural turn of the mid-twentieth century. Is there anything we can learn?
