Micah J. Fleck is an anthropologist and neuro researcher whose writings cover various topics including the learning brain, the development of political populism, gender, and societal implications of scientific studies. He holds degrees from Columbia University and Harvard University, USA and is currently senior writer and editor at The Trans Muse Planet. He is also the author of Anthropology for Beginners.
A unique, sophisticated, and surprising analysis of contemporary right-wing/libertarian populism in the United States. Fleck pushes anthropology in important new directions to consider the long-term relationship between today's (false or mutated) libertarianism and race, class, and the late-capitalist status quo and, most unexpectedly, the kinship between classical liberalism and classical socialism-both of which are misunderstood and maligned by conservative populists. * Jack David Eller, anthropologist, author of Trump and Political Theology: Unmaking Truth and Democracy and editor of The Anthropology of Trump: Culture and the Exceptional Moment *
