Political Economy with Werner Mouton

Political Economy with Werner Mouton I examine how power operates through economic, political, and cultural systems—who benefits, how systems evolve, and what consequences follow. Each episode analyzes current events through theoretical frameworks from Marx, Polanyi, Hayek, and others. The goal is clarity: helping you understand how the world actually works, not what official narratives claim. I'm a writer and CGMA. I understand how organizations and capital function from the inside, which informs how I explain complex systems. Most episodes remain free.

Selective Protection and the Roots of Populism in Capitalism

In this episode, I explore the rise of hard-right populist parties and the paradox at their core: voters under economic strain accept short-term benefits while surrendering long-term rights and opportunities. We trace how capitalism generates inequality, how inequality fuels populism, and how populism reshapes democracy into a system of selective protection. The essay examines Poland, Hungary, and France as case studies, and considers the broader structural loop: capitalism → inequality → populism → authoritarian drift.
