Sometimes it feels like the tidal wave of ‘wokeness’ (or identity politics) washed over the western world almost overnight. It has captured more or less every societal institution in a remarkably short period of time.

However, the intellectual roots of the movement can be traced back over fifty years.

Will and Yascha discuss his latest book, ‘The Identity Trap: A Story of Ideas and Power in Our Time’.
