Amna Akbar talks with Bernard Harcourt about his new book—and how we can build on existing forms of cooperation to transform society

Amna A. Akbar, Bernard E. Harcourt, and Anthony Morgan in the Boston Review:

As part of our event series with The Philosopher, Amna Akbar sat down with Bernard Harcourt, legal scholar and professor of political science at Columbia University, to discuss his new book, Cooperation: A Political, Economic, and Social Theory.
