Why do people no longer trust experts, facts and statistics? Why has politics become so fractious and warlike? What caused the populist upheavals of recent years?
Will Davies’ new book, Nervous States: How Feeling Took Over The World, seeks to understand the present 'post-truth' moment, by looking back at the history of political and economic ideas. This Goldsmiths launch of the book will feature Will introducing the central arguments of the book, followed by an audience Q&A and then a drinks reception.
