Gabriel Custodiet: An Intellectual History of the Era that Spawned the Death of Privacy

Gabriel Custodiet discusses the intellectual history of the era which spawned the true death of privacy: 1890-1930. He argues that during this time the concepts of the plasticity of man found in Darwinism and liberalism led to the birth of statism and of eugenics, as well as the belief that we have inherited today: that a scientific elite can and should try to solve all of society’s problems. Privacy as an explicit concern arises during this time as a response to growing centralization: centralization being the antithesis of privacy. *Support Geopolitics & Empire: Donate https://geopoliticsandempire.com/donations Consult https://geopoliticsandempire.com/consultation Become a Member https://geopoliticsandempire.com/become-member Become a Sponsor https://geopoliticsandempire.com/sponsors **Visit Our Sponsors Above Phone https://abovephone.com/?above=geopolitics Nomos Time Bank https://www.nomos.net Borderless Health Insurance http://www.borderlesshealthinsurance.com Websites Watchman Privacy https://watchmanprivacy.com The Watchman Guide to Privacy https://watchmanprivacy.com/book Watchman Privacy Podcast https://watchmanprivacy.com/podcast About Gabriel Custodiet Gabriel Custodiet is host of The Watchman Privacy Podcast.
